Iris Virescens, Lalics Hand Colored Engraving Signed P. J. Redoute
About the Item
Iris Virescens hand colored engraving signed and numbered P. J. Redoute.
One of a set of large and impressive well painted set of nine floral works each having history and literature on reverse.
The highest peak of Redoute's artistic and botanical achievement... Among the most important monuments of botanical illustration ever to be published.
Redoute was at the height of his powers during the publication of Les Liliacees. It is easily the equal in accomplishment of its more popular successor, Les Roses. The work is broader than its title implies, including as it does petaloid monocotyledons in general belonging, for example to Commelinaceae, Bromeliaceae, Liliaceae, At this time, he had as patron and sponsor Josephine Bonaparte, who, on acquiring Malmaison and establishing a superb garden of rare plants there, required an artist of outstanding talent to record them.

Pierre-Joseph Redouté
Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759-1840), was a painter and botanist originally from Belgium, who pursued his extremely successful artistic career in France. He is well known for his watercolor paintings of roses, lilies and other flowers and their subsequent folio-sized, color stipple engravings. Some believe him to be the greatest botanical illustrator of all time. Redouté was a favorite of the French royal court at the time and of the post French revolution aristocracy. He was an official court artist of Queen Marie Antoinette and his works continued to in demand during and after the French Revolution and Reign of Terror. He combined great artistic skills with a pleasing, ingratiating personality which assisted him with his influential patrons. After the fall of the French monarchy, he was a favorite Empress Joséphine, Napoleon Bonaparte's wife and later by his second wife Marie Louise, Duchess of Parma. The wife of Louis Philippe I, the last king of France, Maria Amalia of Naples and Sicily, was also a patron.
