EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of nature's wonders. Titled "Purple Sensation, and Spanish Irises" it is a reproduction from the renowned Hortus Eystettensis by Basil Besler, an esteemed apothecary in Nuremberg during the 17th century. The image features three distinct varieties of plants meticulously hand-colored to highlight their vibrant hues and intricate details. In the foreground stands I Moly latifolium, commonly known as wild leek or allium. Its delicate purple blossoms create a striking contrast against the verdant backdrop. Moving towards the center, we are greeted by II Iris bulbosa variegata, showcasing its unique variegated petals that blend shades of purple and white harmoniously. Nestled beside it is III Iris bulbosa mixta, another variant of Spanish iris with its enchanting mix of colors ranging from deep purples to soft lavenders. Besler's expertise in botanical illustration shines through this piece as he captures each plant's essence with precision and artistry. The historical significance lies not only in his mastery but also in his role as caretaker for the gardens at Prince Bishop near Eichstat. This remarkable print serves as a testament to both scientific documentation and artistic expression prevalent during Germany's 17th-century German School period. It celebrates these culinary plants' natural splendor while inviting viewers into a world where flora becomes an object of admiration and study.
