‎Tulp (Tulipa) is een geslacht van eenzaadlobbige planten uit de leliefamilie (Liliaceae). Tulpen werden in de westelijke wereld ge ntroduceerd door de Weense ambassadeur voor Turkije, Ogier Gisleen van Busbeke, die over de bloemen schreef die hij in 1551 in het Turkse Edirne had gezien. Later zond hij enkele zaden ervan naar Oostenrijk. De aankomst van een vracht tulpenbollen vanuit Turkije in 1562 in Antwerpen betekende het begin van de Europese tulpenteelt. De eerste gedocumenteerde exemplaren werden door de Vlaming Carolus Clusius geplant in de door hem vanaf 1593 geleide Hortus botanicus Leiden. De bostulp (Tulipa sylvestris) is de enige soort die in Nederland in het wild voorkomt en is ingeburgerd vanaf de 19e eeuw‎

‎The young British photographer Nick Knight discovered the beauty of dried plants on a stroll through the herbarium, the "library of pressed flowers", at the Natural History Museum in London. These flowers were a source of such fascination to the photographer that he has now devoted his second large photo album to them. The charm of their fragile corporeality, their filigree transparency and their subtle colours have delighted Nick Knight for more than three and a half years - the time it took him to select from the over six million plants in the herbarium the photographs for this album. Thousands were considered, several hundred photographed and finally the forty-six "most beautiful" chosen. The entire book is imbued with the aesthetic happiness Nick Knight experienced himself on his photographic journey of discovery and whose effect he described in these words: "These are few things that make one happier than discovering a new way of seeing the familiar. Seeing in a way I could not have imagined. It is a very liberating feeling and one that makes me very optimistic." Sandra Knapp, curator of the plants of Middle America at the Natural History Museum has written short explanatory texts on the individual plants commenting on their biological characteristics as well as on their historical and cultural importance. The way the author weaves into her text a short history of botany, botanical research and techniques as well as a history of the herbarium makes this book a pleasure to read and is indispensable for all those who are interested in botany as a scientific discipline.‎

‎, Phaidon Press, 2023 HB, 290 x 250 mm, 292 pages, 379 illustraties , ENG edition, Fine. ISBN 9781838664244.‎

‎A major monograph on the Dutch garden designer, featuring his gardens and the largest collection of his drawings ever published. Step into a Piet Oudolf garden and you are transported into a dreamlike meadowscape, filled with perennials, seasonal color, and texture. Made in close collaboration with Oudolf, this book showcases gardens throughout his career and across the globe - from New York's acclaimed High Line to the newly planted Vitra Campus in Germany. The book offers fresh insight into the work and creative practice of Oudolf, both from a horticultural and artistic perspective, showcasing high-profile and lesser-known gardens, including Chicago's Lurie Garden, Hauser & Wirth Somerset and Menorca, Venice Biennale, Singer Museum, Belle Isle in Detroit, Noma, and others. It offers unprecedented insight into his design process, working methods, and inspirations, and features original sketches and drawings - many of which are published here for the first time. This major new monograph is significant not only for its breadth and the largest collection of Oudolf's drawings ever published, but also for its inclusion of brand-new work, together with newly commissioned essays that place his work in context and offer fresh perspective on his career and significance. The book also includes gatefolds and tip-ins to explain key designs.‎

‎SEEDS OF KNOWLEDGE : Early Modern Illustrated Herbals‎

‎, Silvana Editoriale, 2023 HB, 290 x 240 mm, 432 p, 680 illustrations, EN edition, Publication date: Juni 23. ISBN 9788836646869.‎

‎Seeds of Knowledge highlights the collection of 15th to 17th-century European printed herbals of Dr. Peter Goop (Liechtenstein). Herbals were highly illustrated, critical texts to doctors and lay healthcare providers that included both the folkloric and medicinal uses of plants. The text and illustrations were repeatedly refined as the medicinal benefits of a plant's use were more clearly under-stood and the style of illustration tended towards higher degrees of naturalism. These books were working manuals and frequently annotated by readers with notes of herbal recipes/medicines or other uses not found in the printed text. Dr. Goop's collection is one of the most extensive in private hands. Using the Morgan's 10th-century manuscript of Dioscurides' De materia medica (MS M.652) as a centerpiece, this Thaw Gallery exhibition will explore developments in the understanding of the healthful and healing properties of plants, as Europe moved away from medicinal folklore towards an increased understanding of the natural world.‎

‎The Risala Dhat al-kursi attributed to Ptolemy. A Treatise on the Celestial Globe with Stand‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, xii + 245 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:6 b/w, 28 col., 10 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Arabic. ISBN 9782503602226.‎

‎Summary This book deals with the Ris?la Dh?t al-kurs?, a 33-chapter Arabic treatise on the celestial globe with stand. The treatise is attributed to Ptolemy in some manuscripts, to the Ottoman scholar Akhawayn in others, but is anonymous in most. The book begins with a survey of references to Ptolemaic works in Greek and Arabic sources, presenting various works attributed to Ptolemy either preserved in the original Greek or in translation, or considered lost, including both authentic works and pseudepigrapha. Next follows a critical edition of the treatise Dh?t al-kurs?, based on eight of the twenty-three manuscripts studied. The edition is accompanied by an English translation and an extensive mathematical commentary on each chapter, enriched with explanatory figures. The comparison between this treatise and the Treatise on the Celestial Globe by Qus?? ibn L?q? (d. ca 912 AD), presented in parallel with the commentary, shows that the former is based on the latter; thus the treatise Dh?t al-kurs? should be considered a Ptolemaic pseudepigraphon. A transcription of the Arabic text of the treatise by Qus?? ibn L?q? based ?n three of the eighteen examined manuscripts is included, so that the reader may compare the two texts. Furthermore, in order to examine Akhawayn's association with the treatise, a bibliographical and historical investigation is conducted, which examines the full range of works attributed to Akhawayn. However, the truth about the authorship was probably lost, as the result of various rivalries in the late fifteenth century. TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface 1.
