It's dandelionĀ season here in Columbia, and thanks to a visitor to our reading room, we found a beautiful dandelion in our copy of Leonhart Fuchs' De Historia Stirpium (1542). Dandelions are native to Eurasia and may have been brought to North America for medicinal purposes by early colonizers. VAULT OVR QK41 .F7 1542

Today's friend is LJS 46, an herbal written it Italy around 1520. The rather fantastical plants are typical for herbals written at this time. The herbal was later bound with a group of texts in English, Latin, and Spanish about Morocco less than a century later.
