This majestic volume presents the full-color prints, made by various artists, of the flora found during Mutis' famous 1783 botanical expedition to New Granada (modern Colombia). The expedition started in 1783 and spanned three decades. It did not generate spectacular scientific findings, but the drawing school that was created to record the flora produced prints of exceptional quality.
