Precious numbered edition of the Codex 2396 preserved at the National Library of Austria in Vienna. Perfect reproduction of the magnificent illustrations of the miniatures, 129 of which are very beautiful colored and with the initials highlighted in gold. The edition is edited by Joachim Rössl and Heinrich Konrad who transliterate the Latin text in the second volume and provide a detailed commentary. This is the handbook of the natural powers of plants, minerals and other items explaining their nature, their uses, their harmfulness, and how to prevent harm. This handbook of popular health care, written and illuminated in Venice, Italy around 1490, and later temporarily in the possession of Prince Eugen of Savoy, has been kept since 1737/38 in the Vienna Court Library. The abundantly illustrated manuscript holds a prominent position in the rich tradition of medieval Tacuinum Sanitatis manuscripts. Based on one of the earlier Arabian originals its 294 chapters represent the most extensive, systematic collection of all illustrated health regelments we know. 1975 numbered copies were printed: this is the number 270, printed on parchment.
