Chairish

$7,845

These images are of a pair of original botanical engravings from the third edition of "Hortus Eystettensis" by Basilius Besler, published in 1713. Each engraving features different varieties of peppers, labeled with Latin names such as "Piper Indicum bifurcata figura," "Piper Indicum minimum erectum," "Piper Indicum medium longum erectum," and "Piper Indicum maximum rotundum erectum." The engravings are hand-colored, showcasing the detailed and vibrant illustrations typical of Besler's work. The engravings are framed in Italian burl wood, adding an elegant and timeless touch. The frames include conservation clear glass, which helps protect the artwork from UV damage, and the pieces are mounted with acid-free mats and backer board to ensure longevity. The overall size of each framed piece is 26.875 by 30.875 inches, making them substantial and striking additions to any collection or decor. These hand-colored botanical engravings are not only valuable for their historical and artistic significance but also as exquisite examples of early 18th-century botanical illustration.
