This Gessner’s ’work is considered the start of modern zoology in the West and it was the most widely read of all the Renaissance natural history books. The illustrations in 'Historia animalium' are very naturalistic compared to those found in Medieval bestiaries and printed copies of the Physiologus. Place and year of publication: Zurich, Switzerland, 1617.

Conrad Gessner (1516-1565) was a Swiss naturalist and bibliographer known for his significant contributions to the fields of zoology and botany. He was a pioneer in creating detailed classifications of animals and plants, which laid the foundation for modern taxonomy.
