Published by TASCHEN, The Garden at Eichstätt is a breathtaking facsimile of one of the most important botanical books ever created. Originally published in 1613, Hortus Eystettensis documented the magnificent palace gardens of Eichstätt, Bavaria, and forever changed the world of botanical illustration. Its 367 exquisite hand-colored plates set a new standard for scientific accuracy and artistic beauty.
This extraordinary edition preserves that legacy with remarkable fidelity. Featuring authoritative historical texts and a modern botanical classification, it allows today’s collectors, artists, and garden lovers to experience this legendary florilegium exactly as it was intended more than four centuries ago.
Presented as a Famous First Edition, this printing is limited to 7,500 numbered copies worldwide, making it a true collector’s treasure. The three-volume hardcover set comes housed in an elegant slipcase, creating a museum-quality piece that is as impressive on display as it is to explore page by page.
