Köhler’s magnum opus was published in parts from 1883-1898. The

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.

Lauraceae - Cinnamomum cassia
- Cinnamomum aromaticum
From: Darstellung und Beschreibung sämtlicher in der Pharmacopoea
Borusica aufgeführten offizinellen Gewächse by Otto Carl Berg & Carl Friedrich Schmidt.

Berg was professor of pharmaceutical botany at Berlin University. Schmidt both
drew and lithographed the plates. He was a prolific artist who illustrated many

a survey of plants used in the Prussian pharmacopoeia, as A thoroughly good
book, probably the very best of its class; both in text and illustrations.
