Ehret's meticulous illustrations in "Xylon" are characterized by their precision, clarity, and artistic beauty, which have made them invaluable to both the scientific community and art enthusiasts.
Ehret was born in Heidelberg, Germany, and initially trained as a gardener. His passion for plants and natural history led him to pursue botanical illustration, a field in which he quickly excelled. His talent caught the attention of prominent botanists of his time, including Carl Linnaeus and Sir Hans Sloane, with whom he collaborated.

"Xylon" is a testament to Ehret's expertise and his innovative approach to botanical illustration. The collection features detailed depictions of various plant species, meticulously rendered to highlight their unique characteristics and structures.
