Painting Description
Rosa tomentosa, depicted by Pierre-Joseph Redouté, is a botanical illustration that showcases the detailed and delicate artistry characteristic of Redouté's work. Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759–1840), often referred to as "the Raphael of flowers," was a Belgian painter and botanist known for his precise renderings of plants. He gained acclaim for his contributions to some of the most ambitious and comprehensive botanical books of his time, many of which were commissioned by the French court.
Rosa tomentosa, commonly known as the woolly rose due to its hairy stems and leaves, is a species that Redouté would have depicted with an emphasis on both scientific accuracy and aesthetic beauty. His work typically features a single plant species per illustration, rendered in watercolor, highlighting the unique characteristics of each plant. Redouté's illustrations not only served as critical scientific records but also as works of art, capturing the intricate details of each specimen with exceptional clarity and color fidelity.
This illustration, like many of Redouté's works, would have been included in one of his major publications, possibly "Les Roses," which was published between 1817 and 1824. This series is considered one of his masterpieces, offering a comprehensive look at the varieties of roses known at the time. Each plate in "Les Roses" is accompanied by a text that provides descriptions of the species, including its botanical characteristics and information on cultivation and history.
As an artwork, Rosa tomentosa by Pierre-Joseph Redouté exemplifies the intersection of art and science during the Age of Enlightenment in Europe, reflecting both the artistic elegance and botanical interests of the period.
