Pair Of Giovanna Garzoni Prints - Musa & Mandragora
Frames Measure 13"L x 15"H
Even in her own day, Giovanna Garzoniās Piante Varie was considered no ordinary set of botanical illustrations, being an unusual taxonomic work by an accomplished Italian miniaturist, celebrated for her meticulous technique and primarily associated with still-life painting. This selection of originally seventy-one plants, fifty of which form the manuscript formerly owned by the Strozzi family and now at Dumbarton Oaks, showcases some easily confused or less familiar varieties to ensure their appropriate use. In a striking drawing of the exotic banana plant imbued with almost animal vitality, the lower half of the image relies on a Mattioli print, while the flower, with its stalk elegantly curved to fit the page, must have been studied from nature.
