EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning botanical illustration from the renowned Hortus Eystettensis, created by Basil Besler in the 17th century. The print features three exquisite plants: i. Carnation, Dianthius, ii. Arnica, and iii. Round Leaved Sundew. The intricate details of each plant are beautifully captured in this engraving, highlighting their unique characteristics and delicate beauty. From the vibrant petals of the carnation to the slender leaves of the sundew, every element is meticulously depicted with precision and artistry. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, these plants hold significant medicinal value. Arnica has long been used to treat sprains and bruises while sundew has been utilized for its cough-relieving properties since as early as the 12th century by Italian Doctor Matthaeus Platearius. Basil Besler's expertise as an apothecary shines through in his careful rendering of these plants. As he was entrusted with overseeing Prince Bishop's gardens near Eichstat in Nuremberg during his time, it is evident that his passion for both botany and medicine converged seamlessly within his work. This remarkable print not only serves as a testament to Besler's skill but also reminds us of nature's incredible ability to provide remedies for various ailments. It stands as a timeless tribute to herbal knowledge passed down through generations—a true treasure within any collection or display dedicated to culinary arts, botany enthusiasts or lovers of fine art alike.
