Hortus Eystettensis is a 1613 botanical book of garden plants by Basilius Besler, printed in Germany, probably Eichstätt, and made for garden-lovers and the episcopal court. The copperplate pictures show lilies, orchids and other flowers drawn whole, with roots, bulbs and Latin captions set beneath each plant, giving designers a model of precise line botanical illustration.
