EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cinera Cum Flore, 1613" takes us back to the early seventeenth century, showcasing a stunning colour engraving by German artist Johann Georg Ziesenis. The artwork measures 55.5x42.3 cm and is part of a private collection. Derived from Basilius Besler's Florilegium Hortus Eystettensis, this particular leaf highlights the beauty of nature in intricate detail. The vibrant colours and delicate lines bring forth an artichoke plant with its prickly leaves elegantly displayed against a white background. The image transports us to a time when botanical illustrations were highly valued for their scientific accuracy and artistic finesse. It serves as a testament to the meticulous work of artists like Ziesenis who dedicated themselves to capturing the essence of flora through engravings. With no human presence in sight, we are left solely with the magnificence of this root vegetable showcased in all its glory. The close-up perspective allows us to appreciate every minute detail - from each individual leaf to the texture on its surface. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded that even centuries later, art continues to bridge gaps between different eras and cultures. This print not only captures our attention but also invites us into a world where biology meets aesthetics, offering an everlasting appreciation for nature's wonders.
