More about this artwork

Pierre Joseph Redouté, famously known as the "Raphael of flowers," created the exquisite botanical painting titled "Rosa Indica Dichotoma" between the years 1817 and 1824. This artwork is a splendid representation of Redouté's mastery in capturing the delicate beauty of flowers, focusing here on a variant of the Rose species.The painting features a stem of robust roses ascending gracefully. A fully bloomed rose, captured in a rich shade of pink with intricate detailing of petals, dominates the composition. Slightly below, another bloom in a deep, commanding red adds a vibrant contrast, while a rosebud poised to open hints at the continuance of life and beauty. The botanical accuracy is meticulous, showcasing Redouté’s skill in depicting the fine veining of the leaves and the subtle gradations of color.This artwork not only captures the aesthetic appeal of the roses but also serves as a scientific record, typical of the period's fascination with botany and the natural world.
