About the Item
A stunning original engraving from The Lilies (Les Liliaceés) by P.J. Redouté, considered the greatest botanical artist of all time.
Produced between 1802 and 1816 under the patronage of Josephine Bonaparte, Pierre-Joseph Redouté’s Les Liliacées contained 495 plates in 8 volumes, detailing the various plant species of and related to the lily family and beyond. The plates are drawn from Empress Josephine’s extensive collection of plants in her gardens at Malmaison, where Redouté worked as a botanical artist. The technique is steeple engraving, finished by hand-coloring, in many cases by Redouté himself.
Only around 200 copies of Les Liliaceés were produced, and it's still considered Redouté's greatest achievement, even larger than his popular "Les Roses", because of the thoroughness of the descriptions, the detail of the engravings and the sheer number of species captured in a single collection.
This plate is Number 8, Pancratium Maritimum, which is located within the first volume, created in 1802. Well preserved, mounted on a 1970s solid wood frame with a plexiglass cover. The original green color presents some fading / discoloration, due to age and UV exposure.
The print dimensions are 21 x 14 inches.
On Frame: 28 in. H x 21" W x 2" D.

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.
