EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of Butterburs and Winter Aconite, as depicted in Hortus Eystettensis by Basil Besler. Published in the 17th century, this botanical masterpiece captures the essence of these plants with remarkable detail and vibrant colors. Basil Besler, an esteemed apothecary from Nuremberg, was not only a skilled illustrator but also responsible for tending to the gardens at the Prince Bishop near Eichstat. His expertise in medicinal plants is evident in this hand-colored engraving, which highlights their officinal properties. The image features three distinct species: I Petasites (Butterbur), II Aconitum hyemale (Winter Aconite), and III Petasites flore albo (Coltsfoot). Each plant possesses unique characteristics that make them both fascinating and valuable. While some may be used for their medicinal qualities or as spices, others are known to be poisonous. Besler's illustration serves as a testament to his dedication to capturing nature's wonders through art. This piece belongs to the historica graphica collection and stands as a testament to German school craftsmanship during the 17th century. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are transported back in time when botany was celebrated not only for its scientific significance but also for its aesthetic appeal. It reminds us of our deep-rooted connection with nature and how it continues to inspire artists across generations.
