Painted by Francesco Peyrolery in 1765, this watercolor artwork is part of the Herbal collection from the 18th-19th century Iconographia Taurinensis. Saxifrages are succulent plants that thrive in rocky gardens and can be found growing spontaneously in Italy.

The absence of people allows us to focus solely on nature's wonders depicted here. The Western script accompanying the image provides additional information about each species while maintaining an aesthetic balance within the composition. This piece offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate nature's diversity through artistry.
