Köhler’s magnum opus was published in parts
from 1883-1898. The first volume was finished in 1887, eight years after his
death. The set of three volumes with 283 colour-plates was a noteworthy
achievement and included European plants of medicinal interest. "From the
botanical standpoint the finest and most useful series of illustrations of
medicinal plants" (Great flower books). The beautiful colour-plates after
illustrations by Walther Müller and C.F. Schmidt, which were skillfully rendered
in lithography by E. Günther.* Nissen BBI 1085; Great flower books p. 62; Stafleu & Cowan 3806. www.meemelink.com | index | Brassicaceae |
