EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of nature's floral wonders. Titled "Narcissus, Tulip and Summer Snowflake, from Hortus Eystettensis" this hand-coloured engraving by Basil Besler takes us on a journey through a stunning botanical garden. The image features three distinct flowers that effortlessly captivate our senses. The first is the Narcissus iuncifolius polyanthos albus, also known as the paper white narcissus. Its delicate petals radiate pure elegance and grace, inviting us to get lost in its ethereal charm. Next, we encounter the Lilio Narcissus Bononiensis - a wild tulip bursting with vibrant hues. Its fiery reds and oranges ignite feelings of passion and vitality, reminding us of the boundless energy found in nature's creations. Lastly, we are introduced to Leucojum Bulbosum minus or summer snowflake. This enchanting flower exudes purity with its pristine white blossoms delicately adorning slender stems. Basil Besler was not only an apothecary but also had the privilege of tending to Prince Bishop's gardens near Eichstat. His expertise shines through in this meticulously detailed engraving that captures every intricate detail of these botanical treasures. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, we are reminded of the timeless allure found within nature itself – an eternal source of inspiration for artists throughout history.
