EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable design for Furttenbach's garden in Ulm, as depicted in the renowned Architectura Privata publication. Engraved by the talented Jonas Arnold, this masterpiece was published in 1641 and is now part of a private collection. The image transports us to an era where tulips were considered precious commodities, reserved only for the wealthy elite. A tulip garden such as this one became a symbol of opulence and affluence. The photograph reveals an ostentatious display of climbing plants and vibrant flowers, including the coveted tulips that adorn the paved pathways within an enclosed space. The meticulously designed grottoes and bowers add to its grandeur, creating a sense of tranquility amidst nature's beauty. Lilies also grace this picturesque scene, further enhancing its elegance and sophistication. The townhouse stands proudly in the background, serving as a reminder of both luxury and refinement. A tunnel-like structure invites exploration into another realm within this enchanting garden landscape. It is impossible not to be captivated by the sheer magnificence captured in this photograph. As we gaze upon this stunning visual representation from centuries past, we are reminded of how artistry can transform nature into something extraordinary.
