I work at MOBOT on a project called the Biodiversity Heritage Library http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org which has taken content from Botanicus and combined with books from other botanical and nat history museums for over 40 million pages of digitized texts and images. You can find more images by browsing through our books/journals or can view a selection of over 60,000 images via our flickr stream http://www.flickr.com/photos/biodivlibrary/sets/ All of our images in Flickr are free and reusable for non-commercial uses so feel free to decorate your walls with our images!trosesandlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08428617709754415689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3666263925017036906.post-34907285852085718202013-02-20T22:49:01.815-05:002013-02-20T22:49:01.815-05:00Thanks!

Grey would look absolutely stunning with that dark blue and maybe add a contemporary touch (with grey being very on trend).

I had thought German from looking at just the captions on the pictures, but then the information with the book said it was published in Amsterdam, which is why I guessed Dutch.

I've read a bit of the introduction but couldn't see, why this is a mixed-languages book… Maybe the dutch version of a german one and they didn't wanted to paint all the birds again?!<br /><br />The title of the german book just says "Medicinal Plants". And the german term "Medizinal" is definitely old - no one uses this today!
