dreamssoreal: Aloe from the Gottorfer Codex
Gottorfer Codex The Gottorfer Codex is a four-volume book, in which every page features a painting of flowers and edible/medicinal plants. The four volumes consist of a total of 365 pages depicting 1,180 illustrations of flowers, shrubs and fruits. There are between one and ten motifs on every page. All the paintings are painted with gouache on calf parchment, and their boldness of colour has been exceptionally well preserved. http://www.smk.dk/en/explore-the-art/visit-the-conservator/gottorfer-codex/ More : http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Gottorfer_Codex
