List of works by author Besler, Basilius
Besler, Basilius
Basilius Besler (1561, Nuremberg – 1629, Nuremberg) was a respected Nuremberg apothecary and botanist, best known for his monumental Hortus Eystettensis.
He was curator of the garden (Eichstätt Garden) of Johann Konrad von Gemmingen (1561 – 1612), Prince-bishop of Eichstätt in Bavaria. The bishop was an enthusiastic botanist who derived great pleasure from his garden, which rivaled Hortus Botanicus Leiden among early European botanical gardens outside Italy.
In 1611, the bishop, who was already quite ill, commissioned Besler to compile a codex of the plants growing in his garden, a task which Besler took sixteen years to complete, the bishop dying shortly before the work was published in 1613. This plant atlas or Florilegium was published by Ludwig Jungermann and printed in large format.
