24 original handcoloured ink drawings of Non-European plants. Around 1800. Titled by unknown hand. Watermark of C & I. Honig. In contemp. red morocco case, which indicates some importance to the former owner. Some of the plants were drawn after rare published works, like Jacquin's Plantarum rariorum horti Schoenbrunniensis of 1797 (a rare and expensive work published in probably only 200 copies), Roxburgh's Plants of coast Coromandel (1795) and Smith. Icones pictae plantarum (1790-93), others were drawn in similar style to these works, but are not present in the published works. The captions recite different names for the plants shown and cite botanical literature like Linnaeus, the Bot. Magazine et al.
