This reproduction presents Scarlet Avens (Geum Quellyon), extracted from the famous collection by Pierre-Joseph Redouté. The illustration highlights the striking contrast between the bright red flowers and the deep green of the foliage. The composition respects the codes of the naturalistic plate, favoring anatomical clarity and color fidelity.
Published in 1827, the work Choix des plus belles fleurs testifies to the peak of French botanical illustration. Redouté documents species recently introduced to Europe at the time, such as this plant originating from Chile. His approach combines technical expertise in lithography with an artistic sensibility that has marked the history of natural sciences.
Destined for contemplation and study, this antique print fits perfectly into a documentary or decorative ensemble. It offers a precise reading of 19th-century floral morphology, ideal for enthusiasts of botanical history and academic art.
