Fabulous Flowers by Pierre-Joseph Redoute (Author)


Book Description

Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759-1840) stands tall among history's most revered botanical illustrators. Known as the "Raphael of Flowers" for his meticulously precise watercolors of roses, lilies, and other blossoms, Redouté held sway over botanical art from 1790 to 1830. Serving as the official court artist for Louis XVI and as the art mentor to Marie Antoinette, he not only survived the tumultuous times but also garnered the support of Napoleon's wife, Empress Josephine.
Today, the admiration for Redouté's masterpieces has transcended aristocratic confines. Celebrated by botanists for their scientific precision and cherished by fine art connoisseurs for their unparalleled beauty, the artist's floral depictions grace the walls of countless homes globally. This stunning new hardcover edition showcases 90 exquisite renditions of Redouté's finest creations, each accompanied by a concise caption. Beyond its role as a valuable resource for artists, this lavishly illustrated book is a remarkable companion for nature enthusiasts.
