EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of Caryophyllus Arboreus and Seriphius, two exquisite flowers from the carnation family. Created by Joseph Pitton de Tournefort in the 17th century, this pen and ink with watercolor on paper artwork is a true testament to botanical artistry. The artist, Claude Aubriet, masterfully captures every intricate detail of these blossoms. The vibrant colors and lifelike textures bring these flowers to life, making them appear almost tangible. It is as if one could reach out and feel their velvety petals or catch a whiff of their sweet fragrance. This print is part of a larger work titled "Relation d'un voyage du Levant" which documents an expedition to the East. In this context, Caryophyllus Arboreus and Seriphius serve as symbols of discovery and exploration. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back in time to an era when botany was still being explored and understood. It reminds us that even centuries ago, humans were captivated by the wonders of nature's creations. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, this print serves as a visual reminder that beauty can be found not only in grand landscapes but also within the smallest details of our natural world.
