Twee soorten irissen 1617

Crispijn van de Passe the Younger's "Twee soorten irissen" from 1617 showcases his meticulous attention to detail in this botanical engraving. Two varieties of Irises are depicted in the work, one with petals that are wide open and another with petals that are slightly curled. The leaves of the plants are rendered in a delicate and realistic manner, with fine lines capturing the texture of the foliage. The print's clarity and precision make it a valuable resource for studying the natural world. This work can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands.
