Painting Description
"Rosa Centifolia Bullata," also known as the "Bullata Rose," is a celebrated botanical illustration by Pierre-Joseph Redouté, a renowned Belgian artist and botanist active in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Redouté is often referred to as the "Raphael of flowers" and is best known for his precise and beautifully detailed depictions of flowers, particularly roses. His work has had a lasting impact on botanical art and horticulture, combining scientific accuracy with artistic elegance.
The illustration of "Rosa Centifolia Bullata" is part of Redouté's larger body of work, which includes thousands of watercolor paintings of flowers, many of which were published in his books such as "Les Roses" and "Choix des plus belles fleurs." "Les Roses," published in three volumes between 1817 and 1824, is particularly noteworthy and is considered one of his masterpieces. It features over a hundred rose species and cultivars existing during Redouté's time, rendered in exquisite detail.
"Rosa Centifolia Bullata" exemplifies Redouté's skill in capturing the delicate textures and subtle variations of color in rose petals, as well as the intricate structure of the leaves and stems. The "Centifolia" roses, also known as "cabbage roses" due to their densely packed petals, were highly prized in the late 18th and early 19th centuries for their beauty and fragrance. The "Bullata" variant, characterized by its unique, bubbled or blistered leaf texture, adds an additional layer of interest to Redouté's illustration, showcasing his ability to observe and depict botanical peculiarities.
Redouté's work, including "Rosa Centifolia Bullata," not only serves as a historical record of floral varieties of his era but also continues to inspire artists, botanists, and gardeners today. His illustrations are celebrated for their contribution to botanical science, as well as their artistic merit, and remain highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of botanical art. Through his meticulous and passionate portrayal of plants, Redouté has left an indelible mark on the fields of art and botany, bridging the two with his exceptional talent and dedication.
