EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning array of vibrant flowers, including the Ipheion Rolf Fiedler Spring Starflower, Marsh Marigold, Pseudo Helleborus, Viola Tricolor, and Cowslip. The hand-colored engraving was created by the German School in the 17th century and is part of a private collection. The image originates from Hortus Eystettensis, a renowned botanical publication by Basil Besler. As an apothecary in Nuremberg and head gardener at the Prince Bishop's gardens near Eichstat, Besler had extensive knowledge of medicinal plants. This print features various officinal plants that were commonly used for their healing properties during that time. One notable plant depicted is the Pseudo Helleborus or false hellebore from the Renuncula family. Its root was traditionally employed to treat warts. The meticulous detail captured in this engraving allows viewers to appreciate each delicate petal and leaf with awe-inspiring precision. The composition exudes natural beauty while also serving as a valuable historical document on botanical specimens. It reminds us of our deep-rooted connection with nature and how humans have long relied on plants for both aesthetic pleasure and medicinal purposes. Displayed within The Stapleton Collection, this enchanting print transports us back to an era where artistry met scientific exploration—a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with flora throughout history.
