Table of ContentsReviews"""Botanical Icons is a fascinating, thought-provoking, critical survey of plant illustration practices in the premodern Mediterranean. Griebeler takes his audience on a journey that forces one to reconsider conceptions (and misconceptions) of Mediterranean visual botanical knowledge that are at the root of the modern scientific depiction of plants. The rich, scholarly text, which provokes questions on every page, is supported and augmented by the use of many carefully selected comparative images from across Mediterranean cultures."" --Stephen A. Harris, University of Oxford" Author InformationAndrew Griebeler is assistant professor in the Department of Art, Art History, and Visual Studies at Duke University.
