Pubblicato a Napoli nel 1845 dalla tipografia dell'Aquila di V. Puzziello, this volume presents the 'Catalogo delle piante che si coltivano nel R. Orto Botanico di Napoli', edited by Michele Tenore. It includes a large color lithographic plate of the botanical garden's layout by Achille Bracco, providing a comprehensive reference of the cultivated flora.
The tome showcases detailed descriptions of various plant species, accompanied by annotations, reflecting the scholarly approach of Tenore, who served as the professor of botany and the curator of the Royal Botanical Garden of Naples. The binding, crafted in contemporary cloth, exhibits slight wear with minor blemishes to the covers, indicating its historical use and significance.
Despite these imperfections, the work remains a valuable artifact for botanical studies and historical reference, marking a significant contribution to scientific literature in the mid-19th century.
