EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Flowering plant, from Phytographia Curiosa" takes us on a journey back in time to the year 1702. Created by Abraham Munting, a renowned Dutch botanist and artist of the 17th century, this print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the delicate beauty of nature. The image features a vibrant blue flowering plant elegantly displayed in a decorative tub-shaped pot. The intricate details of each petal and leaf are meticulously engraved, highlighting Munting's keen eye for precision and accuracy. The composition is further enhanced by an ornate urn placed beside the plant, adding an element of sophistication to the overall arrangement. Originally published in 1672 without plates under the title "Waare Oeffening der Planten" this particular edition belongs to a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its contribution to botanical studies during that era. As we gaze upon this exquisite artwork today, we are reminded of Munting's dedication to showcasing the wonders of nature through his artistry. This print serves as a timeless reminder that even centuries later, flowers continue to captivate our hearts with their enchanting allure.
