Answer

I agree with John.  In this case it means, "Signified, expressed, or embodied in a greater or more prominent magnitude or degree: "The man was no more than the boy writ large" (George Eliot)."

Answer

Without more context, this is an ambiguous use of “writ large.”  It could mean “as a whole system.”  For example, while it is possible to analyze isolated aspects of nature, it is very difficult to analyze nature AS A WHOLE SYSTEM because it is so complex.

Answer

I think it means
Nature in general is hard to analyse.
