Das Buch granatapfel im latin genant Malogranatus
EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Book of Pomegranate in Latin called Malogranatus), a captivating artifact from the 16th century, is a rare and intriguing masterpiece created by the collaborative efforts of Hans Baldung and Johann Geiler von Kaisersberg. This bound volume, with its six exquisite woodcut illustrations and blindstamped vellum-backed wooden boards, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the time. The cover of this ancient tome, adorned with the image of a pomegranate, symbolizes both abundance and fertility. The fruit, known as Malogranatus in Latin, is depicted in meticulous detail, its ruby-red seeds encased within a protective layer of crisp, grey bark. The illustrations within the book further showcase the pomegranate's significance in various aspects of life, from its use in cookery and cooking to its symbolic representation in religious and mythological contexts. Hans Baldung, a renowned German painter and printmaker, was responsible for the stunning woodcut illustrations. His intricate and precise depictions of the pomegranate, as well as the figures that interact with it, are a testament to his artistic skill and mastery of the medium. Johann Geiler von Kaisersberg, a prominent theologian and humanist, likely provided the concept and text for the book. This historic artifact, with its rich history and intriguing concept, is a must-see for anyone with an interest in art, history, or the cultural traditions of the past. Its presence in an art gallery or museum exhibition serves as a reminder of the enduring allure and importance of the artistic and intellectual achievements of the past.
