Publisher: This elegant catalogue celebrates the work of Pierre-Joseph Redouté, known as "the Raphael of flowers." It gathers all engravings from his masterful volumes, Roses and Selection of the Most Beautiful Flowers, as well as the most astounding pieces from The Lilies. Redouté, a French flower painter (1759–1840), dedicated himself exclusively to capturing the diversity of flowering plants in watercolor paintings, which were then published as copper engravings with careful botanical descriptions. He was a favorite of wealthy Parisian patrons, including Napoleon’s wife Josephine, and was revered as a master of botanical illustration during his time and to this day. This elegant catalogue offers an overview of Redouté’s extraordinary combination of accuracy and beauty and provides a privileged glimpse into the magnificent gardens and greenhouses of a bygone Paris. The edition is available in English, French, and German.
