EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning arrangement of white oriental hyacinth, large leaf iris, dog tooth, and large blue muscari. The image is taken from the renowned book "Histoire generale des insects de Surinam et de toute l Europe" by Maria Sibylla de Merian, published in Paris in 1771. Maria Sibylla de Merian was an accomplished artist and naturalist who dedicated her life to studying insects and their habitats. Her meticulous illustrations captured the beauty and intricacy of various species, including these exquisite flowers. In this particular print, the delicate petals of the white oriental hyacinth contrast beautifully with the vibrant blue hues of the large leaf iris and muscari. Each flower is meticulously depicted with incredible attention to detail, showcasing De Merian's exceptional talent as an engraver. The composition exudes elegance and grace while also providing valuable botanical information for enthusiasts or researchers interested in European flora. This enchanting piece serves as a testament to De Merian's contribution to both art and science during her lifetime. Leonard de Selva has skillfully photographed this historical artwork, preserving its essence for generations to come. As we admire this floral arrangement through his lens, we are reminded of nature's boundless beauty that transcends time itself.
