"Tilia Foemina Lindenbaum," commonly known as the Lime Tree, is a botanical illustration by Leonhard Fuchs, a renowned German physician and one of the founding fathers of botany. The illustration is part of Fuchs's magnum opus, "De Historia Stirpium Commentarii Insignes" (Notable Commentaries on the History of Plants), published in 1542. This seminal work is celebrated for its detailed and accurate descriptions of plants, accompanied by high-quality woodcut illustrations, which were largely based on firsthand observations.

The Lime Tree illustration is a prime example of the meticulous attention to detail that characterizes Fuchs's work. It depicts the female linden tree, Tilia sp., with its distinctive heart-shaped leaves and clusters of fragrant flowers, which have been used for medicinal purposes and in various cultural practices throughout history. The illustration not only serves as a scientific representation of the species but also reflects the Renaissance era's blending of art and science, showcasing the aesthetic beauty of the natural world alongside its botanical significance.

Leonhard Fuchs's contributions through illustrations like "Tilia Foemina Lindenbaum" were instrumental in advancing the field of botany. His work provided an extensive reference for plant identification and classification, which was invaluable to scientists, herbalists, and physicians of his time. The "De Historia Stirpium" is not only a landmark in botanical literature but also a testament to the early synergy between scientific inquiry and visual artistry in the documentation of the natural world.
