Magnarum Medicinae partium herbariae et zoographiae imagines - UER MS 2362
by Georg Oellinger, Samuel Quichelberg
Shelfmark H62/MS 2362

A beautiful, image-only, illustrated manuscript. The artistic quality is excellent, yet several plants look weird, sometimes monstrous. I found the presence of a castle with swallow-tail merlons rather unexpected for the time and place of production.
Being more than one century later, the ms is unlikely to be terribly relevant as a VMS parallel, still those who appreciated ancient herbals will enjoy browsing through it.
