This framed botanical print features Narcissus maximus medio purpureus from Basilius Besler’s celebrated Hortus Eystettensis, first published in 1613. Besler’s florilegium is regarded as one of the greatest achievements in early botanical illustration, admired for both its scientific accuracy and its artistic elegance.
The narcissus, shown here with graceful stems and delicate blossoms, is captured in exquisite detail. The print is handsomely presented in a gilt and dark wood frame with linen matting, enhancing the refinement of the botanical subject.
Condition is consistent with age and display use. The frame shows only minor wear, while the print remains vibrant and striking. This historic botanical study is ready to hang and would complement any collection of fine art or period décor. 19h x 16w x 2d
