EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of three distinct flowers - the common pink foxglove, orange hawkweed, and white foxglove. Each flower stands tall and proud, displaying its unique colors and delicate petals. The leftmost flower is the common pink foxglove, known by its scientific name digitalis flore rubro. Its vibrant pink hue adds a splash of color to the composition, drawing attention with its graceful presence. In the center stands the orange hawkweed from the compositae family. Its fiery orange petals create a striking contrast against the surrounding greenery, demanding admiration for its boldness. Finally, on the right side rests the elegant white foxglove or digitalis flore albo. This pristine bloom exudes an air of purity and tranquility with its soft white petals that seem to glow in natural light. Captured from Beslers Florilegium in 1613 Nuremberg, this engraving serves as a testament to Basilius Besler's meticulous artistry and passion for botanical illustration. The intricate details showcased in this piece highlight not only his skill but also his deep understanding of biology and horticulture. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are reminded of nature's boundless wonders and how even centuries-old prints can still evoke awe-inspiring emotions within us today.
