EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty and intricacy of a Mustard Plant from 1613. The engraving, created for Basilius Besler's renowned "Florilegium" transports us back to Nuremberg during the early 17th century. On the left side, we see the elegant White Mustard (Brassica hirta), with its delicate white flowers and vibrant green leaves. Its presence exudes purity and grace. Adjacent to it is another fascinating plant called myagrum (Myagrum perfoliatum). This lesser-known botanical specimen captures our attention with its unique features. The myagrum's leaves are perfectly perforated, creating an intriguing visual effect that draws us closer to examine its intricate details. The artist behind this engraving skillfully captures both plants' essence, showcasing their roots as well. Through this image, we gain insight into the world of botany in the early 17th century – a time when scientific exploration was flourishing. As we admire this historical masterpiece, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also recognize its significance in biology and botany. This print serves as a reminder of how art can intertwine with science to create something truly remarkable.
