EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print captures the delicate beauty of Velvetleaf and Sweet Peas, as depicted in the renowned Hortus Eystettensis by Basil Besler. Published in the 17th century, this botanical masterpiece showcases Besler's meticulous attention to detail and his profound knowledge of plants. Besler, an apothecary hailing from Nuremberg, was entrusted with tending to the gardens at the Prince Bishop near Eichstat. His expertise shines through in this hand-coloured engraving that immortalizes these climbing flowers with vibrant hues. The image transports us back to a time when botanical illustrations were not only scientific records but also works of art. The German school of the 17th century excelled in capturing nature's wonders with precision and grace, as seen here. Velvetleaf and Sweet Peas are showcased alongside other captivating specimens like Abutilon Avicennae and Lathyrus peregrinus svavitei erubescen. Each flower is meticulously rendered, allowing us to appreciate their intricate details - from every petal to each leaf. As we gaze upon this historical gem from Heritage Images' Historica Graphica collection, we are reminded of nature's enduring allure. This print serves as a testament to both Besler's passion for botany and his artistic talent. It invites us into a world where science meets artistry, offering a glimpse into centuries-old knowledge that continues to inspire awe today.
