EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored engraving titled "Autumn Snowflake and Meadow Saffrons, from Hortus Eystettensis" showcases the meticulous botanical illustrations of Basil Besler. Published in 1613, this print is a testament to the artist's expertise and attention to detail.

The delicate petals of these flowers are meticulously rendered, capturing their intricate shapes and textures.

From bulbs to saffron, this engraving highlights not only their aesthetic beauty but also their potential therapeutic properties. This print serves as a valuable resource for botanists and enthusiasts alike who seek to study these officinal plants up close. It offers a glimpse into nature's wonders while showcasing Besler's mastery as both an artist and a scientist.
