Painting Description
"Rosa Bifera Officinalis," also known as the "Apothecary's Rose," is a botanical illustration by the renowned Belgian artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté, who specialized in painting flowers. Redouté (1759–1840), often referred to as the "Raphael of flowers," was celebrated for his detailed and color-accurate depictions of a wide variety of plants, many of which were published in large folio editions that are still highly prized by collectors today.
The illustration of "Rosa Bifera Officinalis" is a striking example of Redouté's work, showcasing his ability to combine scientific accuracy with artistic beauty. The Apothecary's Rose, a historic rose variety, has been known for its medicinal properties and was commonly grown in monastic gardens during medieval times. Redouté's illustration captures the rose's double-flowered form, soft pink petals, and the lush foliage that characterizes this species.
Redouté's illustrations were often published as part of comprehensive botanical works, such as "Les Roses," which was released in three volumes between 1817 and 1824. This seminal work featured over a hundred rose species and is considered one of Redouté's masterpieces. "Rosa Bifera Officinalis" is likely included in this collection or one of his other botanical publications, serving as both a scientific record and a piece of art.
The legacy of Redouté's work extends beyond the realm of botanical illustration, influencing both the fields of botany and horticulture, as well as the decorative arts. His illustrations have been reproduced on a variety of media, from porcelain to textiles, reflecting the enduring appeal of his botanical representations. The "Rosa Bifera Officinalis" stands as a testament to Redouté's skill in capturing the delicate intricacies of flora, and it remains an important work within the canon of botanical art.
