This framed botanical print features Iris Bulbosa Lutea Mixta from Basilius Besler’s Hortus Eystettensis, one of the most celebrated florilegia of the early 17th century. First published in 1613, Besler’s work remains admired for its combination of scientific precision and striking artistic presentation.
The illustration depicts iris varieties in full detail, accompanied by their bulbs, rendered with the clarity and elegance characteristic of Besler’s hand-colored prints. It is beautifully displayed in a gilt and dark wood frame with a linen mat that highlights the botanical subject.
Condition is consistent with age and display. The frame shows only minor wear, while the print itself remains vivid and clear. A timeless botanical study, perfect for collectors and a refined decorative accent. 19h x 16w x 2d
