Thirty botanical species represented in as many works in the Museo
del Prado: outstanding paintings and sculptures from the permanent
collection.This volume focuses on thirty botanical species
represented in as many works in the Museo del Prado: outstanding
paintings and sculptures from the permanent collection, such as
Bosch's The Garden of Earthly Delights, Van der Weyden's The
Descent from the Cross and Fra Angelico's The Annunciation. Each of
the thirty plants is accompanied by a commentary by Eduardo Barba
and a botanical illustration by Juan Luis Castillo, as well as a
complete detailed reproduction of the work in the Museum. In the
words of Eduardo Barba: ‘Many works of art are full of plants. In
others, they are a little more hidden. In all cases, botany is an
indispensable part of the story that the artist wants to tell:
there are flowers that allude to the dynasty of the person
portrayed, leaves that sum up a feeling, trees that transmit to the
scene qualities that are specific to them. The species chosen could
be present in the artist's surroundings, even at the foot of his
studio. On other occasions, however, and as a result of expeditions
to different parts of the world, exotic plants from distant
countries were incorporated, enriching the artistic flora,
especially from the 16th century onwards. In any case, the works of
art bear witness to the fascinating ability of artists to observe
the natural environment, who portrayed plants with delicacy, as if
they were just another character.
