Description | Attractive print of a landscape with beehives and an olive tree, with a beautiful border with flowers and fruits. Caption in Latin and German. This image is from the book "Physica Sacra" by the Swiss nature researcher Johann Jakob Scheuchzer, published in four parts between 1731 and 1735. The book was not allowed to be published in his own country because biblical miracles were explained by natural laws. Copperplate engraving, the image itself is in good condition, there is foxing around the image. |
