Painting Description
"Caryophyllus Multiplexfo Ins Florumexrubro..." is a botanical illustration from the renowned work "Hortus Eystettensis" by Basilius Besler. Published in 1613, "Hortus Eystettensis" is one of the most celebrated botanical books of the early modern period, documenting the diverse plant species cultivated in the garden of the Prince-Bishop of Eichstätt, Germany. The garden, known as the Eichstätt Garden, was a marvel of its time, featuring an extensive collection of both native and exotic plants.
Basilius Besler, a Nuremberg apothecary and botanist, was commissioned to create this monumental work, which took sixteen years to complete. The "Hortus Eystettensis" is notable for its large folio size and the high quality of its copperplate engravings, which vividly depict the plants in life-size detail. Each illustration is accompanied by the plant's name in Latin, along with descriptions of its characteristics and habitat.
The specific illustration titled "Caryophyllus Multiplexfo Ins Florumexrubro..." showcases a variety of carnation, a popular ornamental flower known for its intricate, ruffled petals and vibrant colors. The depiction is meticulous, capturing the delicate structure and rich hues of the flower, which was highly prized in European gardens of the period. The illustration reflects the Renaissance fascination with the natural world and the era's advancements in botanical science and horticulture.
"Hortus Eystettensis" remains a significant historical document, offering insights into the botanical knowledge and garden aesthetics of the early 17th century. It is also a testament to the artistic and scientific collaboration that characterized the period, merging detailed botanical observation with the artistry of engraving. The work continues to be studied and admired for its contribution to both botanical literature and the history of botanical illustration.
