.. Pl. 81 Antique Botany Print of the Malva Arborea by Weinmann (1737)

Description: Antique botany print titled 'Althaea arborescens (..)'. Copper engraving of Malva Arborea, a species of mallow native to the coasts of western Europe and the Mediterranean region. This print originates from 'Phytanthoza Iconographia' by J.W. Weinmann.

Artists and Engravers: Johann Wilhelm Weinmann, apothecary and botanist, is noted for his creation of the florilegium 'Phytanthoza iconographia' between 1737 and 1745, an ambitious project which resulted in eight folio volumes with more than 1,000 hand-coloured engravings of several thousand plants.
