Folio 101

Folio 101 is an unusual foldout folio. Because of the fold, in the past this foldout has been split into two panels, but both recto and verso sides of the folio have a single design with text running over the fold. It will therefore not be treated as a foldout. f101r comprises the old f101r1 and f101r2, and f101v comprises the old f101v2 and f101v1. The verso side has not been photographed as a whole, but in two parts. The folio nr. is on f101v (old: f101v2).

General description

This is a so-called pharmaceutical page. For general information about pharmaceutical pages see here.

Illustration(s)

Three simple containers and three rows of herb fragments consisting primarily of leaves with roots, and an occasional flower (29 in total). Exceptionally, the container of the third row is not in the left margin but among the herb fragments. The containers have not been painted to completion.

The fragments of herbs, plants and/or roots have been numbered for (cross-)reference. The numbering is affected by the original assumption that the folio should be seen as two independent panels:

Text

There are 10 lines of text in two paragraphs, both between the second and third row of plant fragments. The text crosses the vertical fold and spans the total width of the foldout folio.

Exceptionally, there are no labels on this page, as if they have been forgotton, or because the folio was never completed.

Text

There are 10 lines of text in three paragraphs, all at the bottom of the page. The text crosses the vertical fold between f101v2 and f101v1 and spans the total width of the foldout folio. The last line has been centred, also in the middle of the pair of pages. The fold, which is rather damaged, makes reading of part of the text very difficult.

There are 18 labels in total.
