More about this artwork

The painting “Rosa Gallica Purpurea Velutina” by Pierre Joseph Redouté, a celebrated botanical artist, captures the delicate and intricate beauty of roses. Created between the years 1817 and 1824, this artwork features a branch of the Gallica rose species, adorned with three blooms in enchanting shades of deep purples and vibrant reds. The roses are depicted in varying stages of bloom – from a tightly bound bud to a fully opened flower, showcasing the natural progression of growth within the plant.The realism in Redouté's work is pronounced, with each petal, leaf, and stamen rendered with scientific precision yet artistic grace. The leaves, textured and veined, add to the authenticity and depth of the painting, complimenting the vividness of the flowers with their rich green hues.This piece is not only a feast for the eyes but also serves as an educational tool, illustrating the botanical characteristics unique to the Rosa Gallica.
