Georg Eberhard Rumphius was a German-born botanist employed by the Dutch East India Company and is best known for his work, Herbarium Amboinense. After going blind in 1670 due to glaucoma, Rumphius continued work on his six-volume manuscript with the help of others. Rumphius died in 1702, so never saw his work in print. It finally appeared in 1741, thirty-nine years after Rumphius's death. Size: 400 x 255 mm Copper plate engraving with contemporary hand writing. Fair condition only. In top right corner and upper margin, the paper has been burnt (with some loss) and staining. Seller Inventory # 75208
