The Frenchman Pierre-Joseph Redoute (1759-1840) is considered the greatest plant illustrator of all time. This series of prints being offered were reproduced from Redoute's "Choix des plus belles fleurs et des plus beaux fruits" originally published from 1827-1833. These were copied from original stipple-engravings kept at the British Museum. Unlike other Redoute botanical reprints, these were not retouched, thus, the prints show whatever foxing, spotting, and discoloration the originals have accumulated in almost 200 years. Here are how original Redoute really look today - aging gracefully, still magnificent, without having to look like Redoute painted them just yesterday. |
