"Iris graminea (græsbladet iris); Iris sibirica (sibirisk iris); Iris pseudacorus (gul iris)" is a watercolor painting by Hans Simon Holtzbecker, a Danish artist known for his botanical illustrations. Created between 1649 and 1659, this work depicts three species of irises: "Iris graminea", "Iris sibirica", and "Iris pseudacorus". The detailed depiction of the irises' intricate structure, their delicate colors, and the subtle variations in their leaves showcases Holtzbecker's meticulous approach to botanical art. This painting is currently housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK) in Denmark.
