“Pomegranate” Plantae Selectae published by Cristoph Jacob Trew in Nuremberg in 1750. Copper engraving with original hand colour. Trew was a physician and botanist and published his works based on the drawings of Ehret, highly acclaimed artist and ‘gardener’ of his time. Linnaeus, the author of the order of plants as we know it today was so impressed by this work he wrote “The miracles of our century in the natural sciences are your work”. To this day these engravings remain some of the most highly acclaimed and sought after botanical interpretations.
