Created by Basil Besler in the early 17th century, this masterpiece captures the delicate beauty of nature's wonders. In this enchanting composition, we are introduced to three exquisite botanical specimens. The first is Paeonia flore pleni incarnato, a peony with its lush petals painted in shades of vibrant red. Next is Ophisglossum, commonly known as adder's tongue fern, displaying its elegant fronds that gracefully unfurl like a serpent's tongue. Lastly, we encounter Melissa Fuschsy or lemon balm herb with its dainty white flowers exuding an aura of tranquility. Besler's expertise as an apothecary shines through in his meticulous attention to detail and precision.
