拍品資料及來源
The flowers have been inspired by the work of the Flemish engraver, Adriaen Collaert (1555/65–1618), particularly plates from Florilegium ab Hadriano Collaert caelatum, published in Antwerp in the late 1580s. For an almost identical example, by Andreas Schüssler, engraved with the same name and date to the underside, see Dr. Heller's Lexicon, Sotheby's, London, 4 December 2012, lot 96.
