EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of three thistle plants, specifically Carlina vulgaris, Aver wurtel, and Cartina Humilis. The title on the object reads "Carline" or "Three Thistle" accompanied by a numerical designation in the top right corner: 327. The photograph is part of an extraordinary collection consisting of twelve albums commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II during the late 16th to early 17th century. This particular album focuses on drawings of animals, birds, plants, flowers, and mushrooms known at that time. Anselmus Boetius de Boodt meticulously crafted this artwork using various mediums such as paper, watercolor paint, deck paint, chalk, ink pen, and regular pen. The dimensions of this masterpiece measure approximately 235 mm in height and 165 mm in width. What makes this piece even more remarkable is that it includes explanations written in three languages: Dutch (possibly Flemish), Latin (the language commonly used for scientific descriptions during that era), and French. As you gaze upon this stunning print capturing nature's intricate details with precision and artistry from centuries ago; imagine yourself transported back to a time when Emperor Rudolf II sought to document the world's wonders through these magnificent illustrations.
