More about this artwork

Pierre Joseph Redouté's "Rosa Indica Cruenta," created between 1817 and 1824, is a masterful depiction of the rich and radiant beauty inherent in nature’s flora. Renowned for his detailed and vivid botanical illustrations, Redouté brings to life the lush blossom of a rose in this exquisite piece.The painting shows a robust red rose in full bloom, set against a plain background that accentuates the intricate details of the petals and leaves. The flower, depicted in various stages of life—from a tightly closed bud to its fully mature state—highlights the ephemeral, yet perpetually renewing nature of life. Small buds prepare to bloom, signifying a cycle of rebirth and rejuvenation, while dewy leaves and thorny stems enhance the realism, adding dimensional depth to the artwork.Redouté’s technique of stipple engravings colored by hand allows him to achieve both precision and softness, making his depictions of the Rosa Indica Cruenta as scientifically accurate as they are artistically compelling.
