Pinaceae - Abies cilicica From: Flore des serres et des jardins de l’Europe by Charles Lemaire and others. Gand [Gent], Louis van Houtte, 1856, volume 11. Tinted lithograph (sheet 158 x 240 mm). Text enclosed in photocopy. € 25 The founder, publisher and part-editor of this lavish Belgian periodical was Louis van Houtte, the propietor of the largest nursery of its time on the continent.
