The rose (rosa) is a genus of flowering plants in the Rosaceae family. It includes a large number of exotic and native shrubs, with stems almost always armed with prickles, which produce these beautiful flowers so remarkable for the elegance of their forms and the sweetness of their scent. (Traité du rosier, Paris 1835). The most famous flower painter of his time, or even of all time, came from a long line of day painters.
Pierre-Joseph Redouté was Empress Josephine's painter. The plates are taken from his famous book, Les Roses.
