Reseña del libro "A Botanical Stroll through the Prado (en Inglés)"

This volume focuses on thirty botanical species represented in as many works of the Prado Museum: outstanding paintings and sculptures from the permanent collection, such as Hieronymus Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights, The Descent by Van der Weyden or The Annunciation by Fra Angelico. . Each of the thirty plants is accompanied by a commentary by Eduardo Barba and a botanical illustration made by Juan Luis Castillo, as well as a complete and detailed reproduction of the Museum's work.

In the words of Eduardo Barba: «Many works of art are overflowing with plants. In others, they are a little more hidden. In all cases, botany is an indispensable part of the story that the artist wants to tell: there are flowers that allude to the dynasty of the person portrayed, leaves that summarize a feeling, trees that transmit qualities that are their own to the scene. The chosen species could be present in the artist's environment, even at the foot of his work studio. But other times, and as a result of expeditions to different places in the world, exotic plants that came from distant countries were incorporated and enriched the artistic flora, especially from the 16th century onwards. In any case, the works of art show the artists' fascinating ability to observe the natural environment, who delicately portrayed the plants, as if they were just another character."
