EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored engraving captures the vibrant beauty of Carnation, Cat Thyme, and Common Lavender Cotton. Taken from Hortus Eystettensis by Basil Besler, a renowned apothecary in Nuremberg during the 17th century, this print showcases his expertise in botanical illustration. The image is filled with an array of colors that bring these aromatic plants to life. The Carnation stands out with its plenuslaete rubescens instar florum perfici mali - fully double petals blushing with a captivating hue. Next to it, the Marum peregrinum adds a touch of exoticism with its unique foliage. But it is the Abrotanum foemina sive chamaecy parissus that steals the show. This delicate lavender cotton plant exudes elegance and charm as it gracefully intertwines amidst its companions. Its slender stems and silver-gray leaves create a striking contrast against the vivid blooms surrounding it. Besler's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this illustration. Each petal and leaf has been meticulously rendered, showcasing his dedication to capturing nature's beauty for all to admire. This historic piece not only serves as a visual delight but also holds immense value for botany enthusiasts and historians alike. It offers us a glimpse into the rich heritage of German botanical artistry from centuries past – an enduring testament to our fascination with plants' aesthetic appeal and their practical uses throughout history.
