  MARTIUS: THE BOOK OF PALMS 匯集卡爾·馮·馬齊烏斯 1817年到1820年240件植物圖案與植物剖析出染色體樣貌，遍及亞馬遜河等2250公里區域，收錄各式不尋常的樹木、植物、花朵等內部結構，提供平面設計師、插畫師等專業人士參考與應用。

 

  On December 15, 1868, Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius (1794–1868), Professor of Botany at the University of Munich and director of the Royal Botanic Garden, was carried to his grave in a coffin covered with fresh palm leaves. The fronds were a reference to his groundbreaking Natural History of Palms: a work in three volumes, published between 1823–1853.

  This encyclopedic treasury of 240 exquisite chromo litho graphic illustrations was based on Martius’s expeditions through Brazil and Peru. From 1817 to 1820, he traveled over 2,250 km (1,400 miles) through the Amazon basin to investigate natural history and native tribes with zoologist Johann Baptist von Spix.

  The result was an unrivaled catalog of all known genera of the palm family, outlining the modern classification of palms, describing all the palms of Brazil, and producing the first maps of palm biogeography. Martius’s folio is unusual in its inclusion of cross-sectioned diagrams, conveying the architecture of these mighty trees, which central Europeans would have found hard to imagine accurately. Equally remarkable are the color landscapes showing various palms—often standing alone in simple and elegant beauty.
