Weinman - "Faufel Pinas" - 1736

"Faufel Pinas"

A print by Johann Wilhelm Weinman from Phytanthoza Icongraphia

The first botanical work to use colour printed mezzotint successfully. This process was so expensive and labour intensive, the process was not repeated for several decades. One of the finest examples of printed botanical works available.
