This tulip book with 92 watercolors may have served as the basis for a manuscript nursery catalogue at the height of the tulipomania period in The Netherlands (1634-1637). However, no prices were added in this volume. Includes an index with the names of the tulips in Latin, partly in manuscript, with typewritten additions on the final, pasted leaf which were provided by E.H.
