This print showcases the exquisite beauty of two types of primroses, known as Primula Primrose and Primula Veris Austriaca Duo genera. The image is part of a remarkable collection consisting of twelve albums commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II in the late 16th century. Created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt between 1596 and 1610, this particular album focuses on drawings of flowers and plants. The delicate strokes and vibrant colors used to depict these primroses truly bring them to life on paper. The Latin title at the top adds an air of elegance to the composition while also providing valuable information about the subject matter. Numbered at the top right corner as "262" this print stands out among its counterparts in terms of its meticulous detail. Accompanying the visual masterpiece are explanations written in Dutch, Latin, and French languages, offering viewers a deeper understanding of these floral wonders. This multi-dimensional approach allows for a broader appreciation not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their scientific significance. Measuring approximately 258mm in height and 189mm in width, this print serves as a testament to both artistic skill and botanical knowledge prevalent during that era. Its inclusion within the Liszt Collection ensures that it will be cherished by enthusiasts who appreciate historical artifacts capturing nature's timeless allure.
