About the Item

This set of four framed botanical prints is from Crispin van de Passe’s Hortus Floridus, published in 1614-1616. The Hortus Floridus was a collection of 160 engravings depicting flowering plants, and it was one of the most popular botanical books of the 17th century. The prints in this set are beautifully executed and capture the beauty and diversity of the flowers they depict. The prints are framed in a simple, elegant style that complements the beauty of the flowers. The frames are made of wood and are finished in a dark stain with gilt corners. The prints are matted in cream and are protected by glass. Dimensions: • Frame: 13 3/4 inches high x 16 1/2 inches • Sight: 6 inches high x 8 3/4 inches References: • The Art of The Garden: Collecting Antique Botanical Prints, Denis DeLaurentis and Hollie Powers Holt, Page 80, where the authors write" Crispin de Passe took a different approach from Besler when he created his wonderful work on flowers, Hortus Floridus. As small in format as Besler’s was large, de Passe’s charming book contains engravings of many common garden flowers… Like Besler, he arranged his book into four parts with each part preceded by a verse. De Passe issued his engravings uncolored but included detailed directions as ho each plate should be tinted, interestingly this was the purchaser’s job…" • Wikipedia: Crispijn (van) de Passe Crispijn (van) de Passe (born 1594/1595 in Cologne — buried 19 January 1670 in Amsterdam), also known as Crispijn (van) de Passe the Younger (Dutch: Crispijn (van) de Passe de Jonge) or Crispijn (van) de Passe , was a Dutch Golden Age engraver, draughtsman and publisher of prints. He was a member of the large printmaking Van de Passe family, son of the engraver and print publisher Crispijn van de Passe the Elder. (Ref: VM98520).
