Conrad Gesner wordt beschouwd als de vader van de moderne wetenschappelijke bibliografie, zoölogie en botanie.
Hij was een Renaissance polymath, arts, filosoof, bibliograaf, filoloog, natuurhistoricus en illustrator die het grootste deel van zijn tijd besteedde aan verzamelen, onderzoeken en schrijven. Hij stelde monumentale werken samen over bibliografie (Bibliotheca universalis 1545–1549) en zoölogie (Historia Animalium 1551–1558). Deze houtsneden werden gepubliceerd in het zogenaamde "Fischbuch" gewijd aan vissen en zeedieren.

Goede staat, enkele lichte vlekjes, een paar oude kreukjes.
