Hieronymus Bock, Kreütterbuch darin unterscheidt Nammen und Würckung der Kreütter [Herbal], 1587.
The description for this page is dancing peasants and bagpiper under Linden Tree. This is just one of many images in the 16th century herbal from the Libraries' Joseph F. Cullman 3rd Library of Natural History.
There is also a beautiful poppy, a lady standing under what appears to be some sort of nut tree, where the nuts look as large as coconuts (look out!), and what looks like a potential shipwreck scene, but this image is my favorite.
