More about this artwork

Delve into the botanical elegance captured in Pierre Joseph Redouté's painting, "Choix des plus belles fleurs pl 017." Renowned for his precision and commitment to botanical illustration, Redouté brings to life the subtle beauty of Camellia japonica, depicted in full bloom and budding form in this exquisite artwork from 1827.The painting showcases a stem of the camellia with two prominent flowers—one fully open in a display of delicate, creamy-white petals that immaculately overlap each other, and another, a tender bud, promising further beauty yet to unfold. The dark green, glossy leaves provide a rich backdrop, enhancing the purity of the white blooms. The stem, with its reddish hue, adds a slight contrast to the foliage, emphasizing the naturalistic approach of Redouté’s technique."Choix des plus belles fleurs pl 017" is not just an artwork; it is a piece of scientific study as well, revealing the structural intricacies of the camellia flowers and their natural orientation. Redouté’s work is a testament to his era's fascination with flora and the desire to understand and document the natural world through art.
