Dietrich Flora Universalis 1831

This monumental work of Dr. David Dietrich was published in 1831 by August Smid in Jena, Germany.

A number of the here shown cultivars are introduced later as 1831 and could not been drawn before 1831 ???

Also it is remarkable that understanding 4 plates consist many same elements of prints outof 'Paxton's Magazine of Botany' (sometimes they are composed only in an other composition). They can been drawn after by Dietrich or his drawer by the hand of it. Also it is remarkable that much of the at the bottom standing 4 plates consist equal elements of prints in 'Paxton's Magazine of Botany' (sometimes only presented in an other composition). So they can been drawn after by Dietrich or his drawers on the basis of that plates. Compare the thumbnails at the bottom with plates you find on the GFI-web B.Paxton's Magazine of Botany' from Joseph Paxton.
