Its vibrant berries add a splash of color against the backdrop of green leaves. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to appreciate not only the aesthetic appeal but also the scientific significance behind mistletoe. It serves as a reminder that even amidst late Renaissance artistry, nature's wonders were celebrated and studied with great curiosity.
