EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty of Italian Cypress and Spanish Broom, as depicted in Basil Besler's Hortus Eystettensis. The hand-coloured engraving, created by the German School in the 17th century, transports us to a time when botanical art flourished. In this artwork, we are introduced to two remarkable plants. The first is the Italian Cypress (Cupressus arbor), originally from Asia but now considered native to Italy. This majestic tree was brought to Italy by Phoenicians and has since become synonymous with Tuscan landscapes. Its slender form and dark green foliage exude elegance and grace. The second plant featured is the Spanish Broom (Spartium Hispanicum). Known for its preference for dry ground, this plant typically has more bare stems than shown here. It possesses various uses such as flavouring, dye production, and even medicinal properties due to its astringent qualities. Basil Besler himself was an apothecary in Nuremberg who had the privilege of overseeing Prince Bishop's gardens near Eichstat. His expertise in botany shines through his meticulous engravings that capture every intricate detail of these plants. Through this enchanting print, we can appreciate not only nature's splendor but also the historical significance attached to these plants. Whether it be their essential oils or their role as pencil pines or graveyard cypresses, they have left an indelible mark on Mediterranean culture throughout centuries past.
