This attractive collection of botanical plates was published in Curtis's Magazines for the year 1805. In 1800 John Sims took over the publication for the deceased William Curtis.

The plates are single page with one fold out. This volume contains the plates for 789 to 831 (43 in total) which means that 13 plates are not present.
