This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the Book of Simple Medicines, created by Mattheaus Platearius in the 12th century. The artwork, found on folio 161r of Ms Fr. Fv VI #1, depicts a vibrant Physalis plant on the left side of the composition. Crafted on vellum and measuring 26x35.5 cm, this illuminated masterpiece is housed in the National Library in St. Petersburg, Russia. The intricate details and delicate brushstrokes by Robinet Testard bring this botanical marvel to life.
