1. Title: "Daylily, Hemerocallis fulva: A Vibrant Blossom in the World of Botanical Illustrations" This exquisite handcoloured woodblock print showcases the captivating beauty of the Daylily, Hemerocallis fulva. The image is a masterpiece of botanical art, created by the skilled hands of Wolfgang Meyerpick based on an original illustration by Giorgio Liberale. It was published as part of Pietro Andrea Mattioli's "Discorsi di P.A. Matthioli ne i sei libri della Materia Medicinale di Pedacio Dioscoride Anazarbeo," published in Venice in 1568 by Vincenzo Valgrisi. The Daylily, also known as the Orange Daylily or the Wild Daylily, is a hardy perennial plant native to eastern North America. This particular variety, Hemerocallis fulva, is characterized by its vibrant, rich orange-brown flowers, which bloom in summer and last only one day. The intricate details of the flower's petals, stamens, and pistils are brilliantly captured in this woodblock print. The botanical illustration serves not only as a work of art but also holds significant historical value. It is a testament to the meticulous study and documentation of natural history during the Renaissance period. The intricate details and accurate representation of the Daylily reflect the high standards of botanical illustration during this time. The use of the woodblock printing technique adds to the print's charm and authenticity. Each color was applied by hand, resulting in a rich, textured image that brings the Daylily to life. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any botanical collection but also a valuable resource for those interested in the history of botanical illustration and the natural world.
