This framed botanical print features Rosa Eglanteria var. punicea (Rosier Églantier var. couleur ponceau), beautifully rendered after the famous work of Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759–1840). Renowned as the "Raphael of flowers," Redouté was an official court artist to Queen Marie Antoinette and Empress Joséphine Bonaparte. His masterwork botanical illustrations, published in famous volumes like Les Roses (1817–1824), remain gold standards for botanical art, celebrated for their delicate balance of scientific accuracy and artistic grace.
The print highlights vibrant red and yellow blooms with detailed foliage and thorny stems, set against an aged cream backdrop. It includes original plate inscriptions listing Redouté as artist (P.J. Redouté pinx.), Remond as printer (Imprimerie de Rémond), and Coutan as engraver (Coutan sculp.). Housed in a slim gilt wood frame, this piece adds classic elegance and historical charm to any decor or botanical art collection.
