EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant beauty of the Yellow Monks Hood, scientifically known as Aconitum vulparia or Wolfs Carrot. The image is part of a larger collection titled "Flowers (MONKSHOOD), insects: fly" which was commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II during the late 16th to early 17th century. Created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt, a renowned artist and naturalist of that era, this particular piece is from the third album featuring drawings of flowers and plants. The intricate details captured in this artwork are truly remarkable. The delicate petals of the Yellow Monks Hood seem to dance gracefully on paper, while its vibrant yellow color radiates warmth and joy. Amidst these botanical wonders, a tiny fly adds an unexpected touch of life and movement. Accompanying the illustration are explanations in Dutch, Latin, and French languages - a testament to Emperor Rudolf II's dedication to knowledge dissemination across cultures. Measuring approximately 247mm in height and 155mm in width, this print invites viewers into a world where art meets science. It serves as both an aesthetic delight for flower enthusiasts and an educational resource for those interested in historical botanical studies
