EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of Lavender (Lavandula) in all its glory. The lavender flowers, known as Lavende or Spica nardi, are depicted with meticulous detail and vibrant colors. A tiny fly adds a touch of whimsy to the composition, bringing life to the stillness captured on paper. Numbered at the top right corner as 253, this print is part of a larger collection titled "Flowers and Plants" which is one of twelve albums commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II around 1600. Created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt between 1596 and 1610, these drawings were intended to document various animals, birds, and plants known during that time period. The artwork features an explanation written in Dutch, Latin, and French languages. This multi-lingual approach reflects the international significance of Emperor Rudolf II's court during the late Renaissance era. Measuring approximately 241 mm in height and 203 mm in width, this print combines different artistic techniques such as watercolor paint, deck paint application, chalk highlights, ink outlines using pen tools on high-quality paper. With its exquisite attention to detail and historical context dating back over four centuries ago when it was created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt for Emperor Rudolf II's commissioning project; this lavender print serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and a valuable historical artifact for those interested in botany or Renaissance-era studies
