EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of "Varieties of Larkspur" from the renowned Hortus Eystettensis by Basil Besler. Published in the 17th century, this botanical masterpiece captures the essence of nature's artistry with its vibrant colors and intricate details. Basil Besler, an esteemed apothecary in Nuremberg, had the privilege of overseeing the gardens of the Prince Bishop near Eichstat. His expertise and passion for plants are evident in this hand-colored engraving that depicts three distinct varieties of Consolida regalis. The first variety, Consolida regalis simplici flore rubro, mesmerizes with its single red flowers. The second variety, Consolida regalis flore plonara, enchants us with its double flowered blooms. Lastly, we are captivated by Consolida regalis flore plenor - a larkspur boasting fully double flowers that exude elegance and grace. This historic piece belongs to the Historica Graphica Collection and is a testament to German school craftsmanship during the 17th century. Its delicate pink hues bring warmth and serenity to any space it adorns. As we gaze upon this enchanting illustration, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also recognize its significance as a record of botanical history. It serves as a reminder that nature's wonders have been celebrated for centuries and continue to inspire awe today.
