Johann Theodore de Bry (1561 – 1623) was a master German botanical painter. He displayed exceptional realism and detailing in magnificent illustrated flower books, two of which were deemed the most beautiful of his era. De Bry devoted one book completely to an exotic new import from Turkey, the tulip. De Bry also assisted his father in illustrating “Great Voyages,” famous travel narratives that were essential to the Age of Discovery.

This giclée print delivers a vivid image with maximum color accuracy and exceptional resolution. The standard for museums and galleries around the world, giclée (French for “to spray”) is a printing process where millions of ink droplets are sprayed onto the paper’s surface. With the great degree of detail and smooth transitions of color gradients, giclée prints appear much more realistic than other reproduction prints. The high-quality paper (235 gsm) is acid free with a smooth surface.
