A striking pair of hand-colored antique botanical engravings from Abraham Munting's "Accurate Description of the Earth’s Crops," featuring oversized florals gracefully set against scenic landscapes. Beautifully matted and framed, each includes a certificate of authenticity on the reverse.
Abraham Munting (1626–1683) was a Dutch botanist and artist, and Professor of Botany and Chemistry at the University of Groningen, the Dutch Republic.
Each engraving is inscribed with the plant's name in Latin:
Sedum Maius Arborescens Radicabile (Fig. 129, Fol. 468)
Rubus Non Spinosus Major Odoratus (Fol. 247)
The compositions showcase Munting’s signature style: a dramatic botanical specimen in the foreground complemented by a finely detailed landscape in the background. This blend of scientific precision and artistic imagination brings depth and elegance, making each piece a timeless statement for classic, garden-inspired interiors.
Measurements: Frames: 28 3/4" by 24" by 1 1/2"; Plate Marks: 12" by 7 3/4" and 12 1/4 by 8 1/8" approximately.
