Detailed description
Book reprint "Medicina Antiqua" (1st half of the 13th century)
Among the only 50 medieval manuscripts of the Medicina Antiqua, this codex, which was created after a model from the 6th century, is one of the most interesting and - from the point of view of its unique pictorial decoration - one of the most beautiful. It contains not only an extensive herbarium but also numerous depictions of therapy scenes and doctors' pictures, which also go back to ancient models and are executed in luminous opaque colour painting. A unique collection of ancient medical texts on 322 pages, size 13.6 x 19.5 cm, language: Latin/German.
