Painting Description
"Rosa Gallica Granatus" is a botanical illustration by the renowned French painter Pierre-Joseph Redouté, featured in the second volume of his seminal work "Les Roses," published in 1821. Redouté, often referred to as the "Raphael of flowers," was celebrated for his detailed and vivid watercolors of roses, which combined scientific accuracy with artistic elegance. "Les Roses" is considered one of his masterpieces and a classic in botanical illustration, influencing both horticulture and the arts.
The "Rosa Gallica Granatus" illustration depicts a variety of the Gallica rose, also known as the French rose, which was among the first species to be cultivated in Europe and has a rich history dating back to the antiquity. The Gallica roses are known for their lush, intense blooms and were a favorite in formal gardens of the 17th and 18th centuries. Redouté's depiction of the "Rosa Gallica Granatus" captures the flower's dense petals and the distinctive hue that ranges from deep pink to purplish tones.
Redouté's work was not only artistic but also scientific, as he collaborated with botanists and horticulturists to ensure the accuracy of his representations. "Les Roses" was created during a period when the classification and study of roses were becoming more systematic, and Redouté's illustrations served as an important reference for botanists and rose enthusiasts alike. The "Rosa Gallica Granatus" stands as a testament to Redouté's skill in portraying the delicate textures and colors of roses, making it a valuable piece both for its aesthetic qualities and its contribution to botanical art and science.
