A folded 22 1/4 x 17 1/4 sheet of pink/tan paper with printed facsimile titlepage on left (inner) side of folder: [Printed titlepage text given on left of folder]: "Petri Andreae Matthioli Senensis Serenissimi Principis Ferdinandi Archiducis Austriae &C.

The right hand side had the original herbal leaf stapled to it, staple now lacking, but it has left the 2 tiny typical holes near center of herbal leaf, 1 1/2" down from upper edge. [Text given under original Herbal leaf]: "Original Leaf dated 1560 A. D. From the library of Stanley S. Slotkin, Chairman of the Board, Abbey Rents. This Herbal, a first edition, was used by many of the Medical Men in Europe. It describes every known plant, herb, and animal life. Very carefully set down are the cures, virtues and precautions that should be taken. Many different owners have written their names over the pages and their comments are very interesting." The original leaf is pp. 559-560 with headings: In Lib. Quartum Dioscordis. And. Matthioli Comm. chapters 97-99 with 5 different botanical woodcuts near center of page: Millefolium Maius; Millefolium Minus; Verbascum Primum; Verbascum Secundum; Verbascum Tertium. Size of leaf is approx. 8 1/2 x 12 1/2"; left hand side (of p. 559) shows a lengthwise tan stain of 1-3", along the area where leaf was removed from book or fragment, scattered brown spotting to margins, not affecting the 5 attractive & detailed woodcuts. Paper shows a watermark with initials G (?) S (?). [Sample of Latin text]: "Stratiotes millefolium exiguus frutex, palmi altitudine, aut amplius assurgit: foliis avium pulli pennas imitantibus, brevi admodem, diffectoque foliorum exortu.

Part of a larger series of leaves from early books, Bibles, produced by or for Stanley S. Slotkin of abbey Rents; unfortunately, we have no other information about him, or about how many different items like this were assembled or distributed. Leaf is suitable for framing; we cannot guarantee the attribution, but all indications are those for a 16th century printing of this medical/herbal classic.

Pierandrea Mattioli (też: Pietro Andrea Matthioli) (1501-1578), włoski naturalista - botanik i lekarz okresu renesansu. Główną publikacją uczonego były sławne komentarze do De Materia Medica", które były niczym innym jak krytyczną analizą dzieła greckiego lekarza w służbie cesarzy rzymskich, żyjącego w I w. n.e. Pedaniosa Dioskurydesa. De Materia Medica, było najważniejszą księgą o ziołach w czasach starożytnych i prekursorem późniejszych farmakopei. Jest ono niezwykle ważnym źródłem wiedzy o historii zielarstwa i ziołolecznictwa, zaś "Komentarze" Matthiolego to rodzaj aktualizacji tego dzieła o informacje pochodzące od późniejszych autorów, takich jak Galen (II wiek), Avicenna (XI wiek), czy choćby samego Matthiolego, który zawarł dużo własnych obserwacji dotyczących flory alpejskiej, ale także zamieścił wiele informacji pochodzących od innych botaników z całej Europy, z którymi korespondował O przydatności Komentarzy, zwłaszcza dla ówczesnych aptekarzy, świadczy fakt, że zostały on przełożone na łacinę, francuski, niemiecki i czeski. W sumie, uwzględniając włoski oryginał, funkcjonowały one w pięciu językach. Pierwsze włoskie wydanie ukazało się w 1544 roku i do 1744 roku było wznawiane 20 razy. Oferowane wydanie na francuski przełożył Antoine du Pinet (1510-1584), tłumacz tekstów z łaciny na francuski, działał i żył w Lyonie. Dzieło jest niezwykle bogato zdobione drzeworytami, głównie botanicznymi w ilości 739, w niewielkim zakresie zoologicznymi w ilości 66, i zaledwie 6-ma wizerunkami urzadzeń wykorzytywanych do procesu destylacji oraz 3-ma innymi (mumia, monety i łowy). Warto jeszcze zaznaczyć, że podstawowym źródłem dla naszego Zielnika Syreniusza (Szymona Syreńskiego, Kraków 1613) była właśnie krytyczna analiza dzieła greckiego lekarza Dioskurydesa dokonana przez włoskiego uczonego.

The Hartland Library copy, with bookplate, stamp and ticket pocket on the front endpaper. Also with the label of Charles Butler of Warren Wood, Hatfield. The Library was formed by Edwin Sydney Hartland, and was a diverse, but major, collection of herbals, archaeology and anthropology. It was donated to Gloucestershire County Council in 1936, and was eventually dispersed around 2010. Hartland purchased this copy from Sotheby's Charles Butler Sale in 1911. [Mattioli was a doctor and naturalist, born in Sienna. A careful student of botany, he described many new plants and coordinated the medical botany of his time in his Discorsi ("Commentaries") on the Materia Medica of Dioscorides. The first edition of Mattioli's work appeared in 1544 in Italian. There were several later editions in Italian and translations into Latin (Venice, 1554), French (Lyon, 1561), Czech, (Prague, 1562), and German (Prague, 1563). In addition to identifying the plants originally described by Dioscorides, Mattioli added descriptions of some plants not in Dioscorides and not of any known medical use, thus marking a transition from the study of plants as a field of medicine to a study of interest in its own right. In addition, the woodcuts in Mattioli's work were of a high standard, allowing recognition of the plant even when the text was obscure. A noteworthy inclusion is an early variety of tomato,the first documented example of the vegetable being grown and eaten in Europe. The plant genus Matthiola was named by Robert Brown in honor of Mattioli. The final section of eleven pages is "Del modo di distillare le acque", with several impressive large woodcuts].

Pietro Andrea Gregorio Mattioli [1501-1577] was an Italian physician and botanist, who was doctor to Archduke Ferdinand I and Emperor Maximilian II. He helped advanced understanding of medical botany and contributed to knowledge of the medicinal properties of plants. In his Commentaries, Mattioli expanded on and identified plants not mentioned in Dioscorides Materia Medica. This second edition was the first to include a woodcut of a mummy. Bookplate of Joan McIlrath on front pastedown. Early ownership signature on title page. Matching watermarks on front and rear fly-leaf. Wear to front joint, tips.

(10),460,(2),(35) pp. With more than 800 woodcuts of plants in the text and several illustrations of destilling apparatus in the section "Von Distillier un Brennoefen" (fol.456 ff.). A few leaves neatly repaired at corners and at outer margins. At foot of title an ink-erasement repaired. A few leaves with faint dampstainings to upper and right margins. A few scattered brownspots. Some margins slightly brownspotted. Leaves of index at end with some small wormholes. In general a well preserved copy, professionally restored where needed. The scarce second German edition of the famous work "Commentarii a Dioscoride", with which Matthioli's name is chiefly linked. He was an excellent botanist and a renowned physician."Fundamental to the work's success is its conception and execution as a practical scientific treatise. It was intended for daily use by physicians, herbalists, and others, who could find descriptions and notes on medical plants and herbs, Greek and Latin names and synonyms, and the equivalents in other languages. The work made it possible to identify and compare plants and herbs with those mentioned by Dioscorides and also with those found in nature.Matthioli supported his work with new information, partly derived from his direct observations of plants and herbs and partly obtained from other authors.Matthioli's commentary on Dioscoride's text was aimed largely at the practical purpose of medicinal phytognosis and acquired intrinsic value both through the wealth of its descriptive details of each plant and through its accurate drawings. Mattioli may therefore be considered a member of the Vesalian school of morphological observation."
