(Frame: 45,5 x 58,5 cm.)<\/p>\n<p>Johann Wilhelm Weinmann (1683-1741) was an apothecary from Regensburg whose success in business funded his interest in botany. He created a botanical garden with a collection of plants which formed the basis of the <em>Phytanthoza iconographia<\/em>, a comprehensive iconography of \u201cseveral thousand plants, trees, perennials, herbs, flowers, fruits and sponges, both domestic and foreign, from all four parts of the world collected with tireless diligence over the course of many years, which are engraved in the nicest way on copper, and at the same time by a newly invented way, after nature with vivid colours in most graceful illustrations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To illustrate his florilegium, Weinmann hired the brilliant young botanical artist <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Georg_Dionysius_Ehret\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Georg Dionysius Ehret<\/a> (1708-70), who, in his inexperience, agreed to terms highly unfavorable to himself. Disgusted with the miserly pay, Ehret wound up leaving the project after completing 500 designs, and his pivotal contribution to the work is nowhere acknowledged in the publication. The plates made an enormous impact on other artists, botanists, and printers, inspiring, among others, Christoph Trew, who saw his &#8220;<em>Plantae Selectae<\/em>&#8221; as an extension of Weinmann&#8217;s work (a properly-paid Ehret did the illustrations for Trew).<\/p>\n<p>The mezzotint process used fort he <em>Phytanthoza<\/em> had been invented by <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Johan_Teyler\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Johan Teyler<\/a> in the Netherlands around 1688. As practiced here by Bartholom\u00e4us Seuter (1678-1754), it was really a combination of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Etching\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">etching<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mezzotint\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mezzotint<\/a>, which made possible delicate lines and a very fine grain.
