EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and intricacy of nature as depicted in Basil Besler's Hortus Eystettensis. The image showcases three varieties of plants, namely Colutea Tree and two Cytisus Varieties. Besler, an apothecary from Nuremberg, meticulously documented these botanical wonders during the 17th century. In this particular print, we see the I Colutea Vesicaria with its vibrant yellow flowers and unique chailice-like shape. Next to it is the II Cytisus Caleni Maranth cornutus, displaying its delicate pink blossoms that add a touch of elegance to any garden. Lastly, there is the III Cytisus primus Tabernam spicatus featuring beautiful inparipinnate leaves and pods. Besler's hand-colored engraving technique brings out every detail of these plants' features - their colors, textures, and shapes come alive on paper. This historical piece not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable scientific information about these species. The Heritage Images collection has preserved this remarkable illustration for us to appreciate centuries later. It reminds us of our connection with nature and how humans have long been fascinated by its diversity. Let this print transport you back in time to a period when botanical exploration was at its peak while serving as a reminder to cherish our natural world today.
