Livia Nekam, Corvina Press 1968.
"The author describes apothecary
vessels that have survived from
the seventeenth, eighteenth and
nineteenth centuries, . . . the
most beautiful of the pharmacy
interiors and furnishings from
the Empire and Biedermeier
periods." A small format but
fascinating book with a
fantastic range of colour
photographic plates and
interesting historical detail.
