Inspiring innovation from tradition

Printed Herbals

By the end of the 15th century, the new developments of the printing press made it possible to reproduce illustrated herbals in a new form. The database Printed Herbals currently under construction will list such books, together with a bibliographical description and a link to their representations of plants in the image collection of the Institute.
