About the Item

Johann Weinmann Set of Twelve Botanical Engravings, Circa 1740. A fine set of twelve Johann Weinmann copper engraving, printed in colors and finished by hand. The engravings within decoupage botanical frames. This was for the first time, that this technique of colour-printing was used highly successful on the continent in a botanical series. Originally this technique was founded by Taylor in Great Britain. Among the artists in this enormous botanical series were Ehret, Haid and Seutter from Augsburg working. On all plates we find their individual initials in the lower right corner. Dimensions: Framed: 19 1/4 inches x 14 1/2 inches. Reference: Johann Wilhelm Weinmann was a German apothecary and botanist who lived from 1683 to 1741. He is best known for his monumental botanical work, Phytanthoza Iconographia, which was published between 1737 and 1745. This ambitious project consisted of eight folio volumes containing over 1,000 hand-colored engravings of several thousand plant species. The work was significant because it employed innovative printing techniques, including mezzotint, which allowed for greater detail and shading in botanical illustrations. Among the artists involved in the project was Georg Dionysius Ehret, a renowned botanical illustrator. Phytanthoza Iconographia was highly influential and inspired later botanical works, including Japanese medicinal texts. It remains an important reference in the history of botanical illustration.
