EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning array of botanical wonders from the 17th century. Engraved by Basilius Besler and published in Nuremberg, Germany in 1613, this engraving is part of his renowned Florilegium collection. In this composition, we are treated to a symphony of colors and shapes that celebrate the beauty of nature. The centerpiece is a white narcissus with a vibrant yellow trumpet, exuding elegance and grace. Surrounding it are delicate double-flowered blue hepaticas, their petals resembling intricate ruffled skirts. Adding to the visual feast are grape hyacinths with their distinctive clusters of tiny purple blossoms. Their presence injects an element of playfulness into the scene while complementing the overall color palette harmoniously. Besler's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving tool - each leaf meticulously rendered and every root intricately depicted. This level of precision highlights not only his artistic skill but also his deep understanding and appreciation for botany. As we gaze upon this enchanting piece, we can't help but be transported back in time to an era where scientific exploration merged seamlessly with artistic expression. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, nature continues to inspire awe and wonder within us all.
