More about this artwork

Pierre Joseph Redouté’s painting titled "Choix des plus belles fleurs pl 048 (1827)" presents a singular study of botanical beauty, capturing both the grace and the scientific detail of its subject. This exquisite artwork depicts Mimulus, commonly known as monkey-flower, a plant notable for its vibrancy and intricate form.In the painting, Redouté illustrates several clusters of the yellow Mimulus blossoms, each marked by a uniquely patterned throat, often speckled or marked, that direct towards the flower's center. These blossoms are gracefully supported by a robust, verdant stem lined with large, rounded leaves that possess palpable textures and subtle shades of green. By illustrating both blossoming flowers and buds, Redouté shows the full cycle of growth, highlighting the natural beauty and complexity of Mimulus.Redouté's precision in depicting the Mimulus displays not only his artistic talent but his deep understanding of botanical subjects, making this painting both a visual delight and a piece of scientific documentation. This illustration reflects the dedication to detail that earns Redouté his reputation as "the Raphael of flowers.
