Paper covers. Condition: V.g. No Jacket. Nearly new, but with significant tanning to page edges and a small water stain inside front flap. Trilingual work with English version of wrapper; also published as "Ein Garten Eden" and "Un Jardin d'Eden" with the co-operation of the Austrian National Library. Their recent exhibition, curated by the author who is a Professor at the Free University of Berlin and director of the Botanical Museum in Dahlem, prompted this catalogue. The French and English text is printed in smaller type below the main German version. Although the scope of this masterly survey of 100 botanical paintings and drawings ranging from the Byzantine era (pre-512 AD) to the present day is limited to works held in the Austrian National Library, this is hardly a handicap as they own a representative selection of published botanical art from most periods and a significant number of original works. Perhaps the most extraordinary, and poignant, choice is plate 95 which reproduces the original manuscript of Gams' article describing and illustrating a new species of Tyrolean fungus which later was found to be the source of an anti-rejection drug. Cyclosporine. This is no mere curiosity: the drug helped save the life of the author. Weight: 1.5 Language: English, Français, Deutsch.

Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condition: Muy Bien. Edit. Taschen GmbH, 2001 Köln. Idiomas: Alemán, inglés y francés. 4şm (25,5x20,5cm). 576 págs. Rústica ilustrada. Sobrecubierta algo deslucida. ŤThis Garden Eden presents selections from one hundred outstanding works of botanical illustration residing in the extensive collections of the Austrian National Library in Vienna. The 483 coloured plates provede a chronological, geographic, thematic and technical profile of botanical illustration ranging from the 6th to the 20th century: from the Byzantine Codex Aniciae Julianae (included in UNESCO's "Memory of the World" list), through early Renaissance herbals and magnificently illustrated Baroque gardens, to the golden century of botanical illustration between 1750 and 1850. The arrival of photography has effected radical changes in the realm of botanical illustration, but its importance remains unaltered.ť.
