Painted with watercolors on vellum by the talented artist Maria Sibylla Graff, this artwork measures 37.1x28 cm and is housed in the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge, UK. The delicate petals of Iris Susiana are meticulously depicted, revealing their intricate patterns and vibrant colors. The graceful curves of each bloom are complemented by lush foliage and leaves that add depth to this enchanting composition. This botanical print serves as a testament to Graff's keen eye for detail and her ability to capture nature's wonders with remarkable precision. Transporting us back to a time when botany was an emerging field of study, this piece offers a glimpse into the scientific exploration and artistic expression that characterized the 17th century. Its inclusion in the Fitzwilliam Museum's collection further solidifies its significance as an invaluable historical artifact.
