More about this artwork

This exquisite rendering, titled "Rosa Alpina Vulgaris," captures the delicate beauty of the alpine rose. Created by the masterful Belgian artist Pierre Joseph Redouté, renowned for his detailed botanical illustrations, the painting is a testament to Redouté's precision and artistic finesse during the period of 1817 to 1824.The illustration features several blooms of the alpine rose in varying stages of development, from a nascent bud to full blossoms. The petals, displayed in a rich hue of deep pink with lighter accents, surround a bright yellow center, each detailed with meticulous attention to natural color graduation and texture. The leaves, a lush green with prominent veining, provide a stark, beautiful contrast to the vibrant flowers.Redouté’s botanical illustrations are not only celebrated for their aesthetic appeal but also for their contribution to the scientific study of plants and flowers during the 19th century. This painting, with its life-like depiction, serves as both a visual delight and a botanical reference.
