A Garden Eden: Masterpieces of Botanical Illustration
Garden of Eden: Masterpieces of Botanical Illustration surveys centuries of plant illustration, from early scientific plates to lush, decorative works. H. Walter Lack selects images that show both the precision and the fantasy of botanical art, pairing them with concise commentary on artists, patrons, and the circulation of plants and images across empires. The large‑format Taschen production makes the color and line work feel close to the originals.
WHY WE PICKED IT
Because it is a generous, image‑rich introduction to botanical illustration that works as both reference and coffee‑table book. Garden of Eden is a strong pick for gardeners, illustrators, and readers who like their art history rooted in the natural world.
