"The Red Admiral" is a notable painting by American artist Joseph Decker, created in the late 19th century. Decker, born in 1853 in Württemberg, Germany, immigrated to the United States and became known for his still life and genre paintings. His works often reflect a meticulous attention to detail and a deep appreciation for the natural world, characteristics that are vividly displayed in "The Red Admiral."

This painting captures the delicate beauty of a Red Admiral butterfly, scientifically known as Vanessa atalanta, which is renowned for its striking black, white, and orange-red wing patterns. Decker's rendering of the butterfly is both scientifically accurate and artistically expressive, showcasing his skill in capturing the intricate details of its wings and the subtle play of light and shadow. The butterfly is depicted perched on a cluster of flowers, which are rendered with equal precision and care, highlighting Decker's ability to bring out the textures and colors of different natural elements.

"The Red Admiral" is celebrated not only for its technical excellence but also for its composition and use of color. Decker's choice of a dark, muted background serves to accentuate the vibrant hues of the butterfly and flowers, creating a striking contrast that draws the viewer's eye to the central subject. This technique demonstrates Decker's mastery of still life painting and his understanding of how to use color and light to enhance the visual impact of his work.

The painting is part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where it continues to be admired by art enthusiasts and scholars alike. "The Red Admiral" stands as a testament to Joseph Decker's artistic legacy and his contribution to American art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
