"Aloe Vera Costa Spinosa" is a botanical illustration featured in "Phytographia Curiosa," a work by the Dutch botanist Abraham Munting (1626–1683). Munting, who was a professor of botany and the director of the Hortus Botanicus in Groningen, is known for his contributions to the field of botany and for his detailed plant descriptions and illustrations. "Phytographia Curiosa," published posthumously in 1702, is a collection of such illustrations and descriptions, showcasing a wide variety of plants with medicinal and ornamental value.

The illustration "Aloe Vera Costa Spinosa" depicts a species of aloe with characteristic spiny edges, a succulent plant known for its medicinal properties and distinctive appearance. Aloe vera, commonly referred to as true aloe or medicinal aloe, is a species that has been widely used throughout history for its health benefits, particularly for skin care and wound healing. Munting's work, including this illustration, reflects the scientific and artistic endeavors of the 17th century, combining botanical knowledge with the aesthetic presentation of plants.

The "Phytographia Curiosa" serves as an important historical record of botanical knowledge and plant representation from the late 17th century. Munting's illustrations are valued not only for their scientific accuracy but also for their artistic merit, providing a glimpse into the early practices of botanical documentation and the appreciation of plant life during that period. The inclusion of "Aloe Vera Costa Spinosa" in this collection highlights the enduring interest in aloe vera and its place in the botanical studies of the time.
