Hydrangea is an illustration that captures the splendor of this plant with its delicate flowers and lush leaves. Pierre-Joseph Redouté, the famous 18th-century botanical illustrator, demonstrates his talent for capturing the diversity and vibrancy of flora through his engravings.
In the publication dated 1827 from which the plate is taken, the detail of this illustration is given as follows:
(Hydrangea opuloides Lam. Hydrangea hortensis Smith.) This elegant shrub deserved the favor it enjoyed in Europe when it was introduced, and that which the Chinese and Japanese still grant it. Its flowers, in fact, are frequently represented in Chinese paintings. It is worth noting that the pink parts, which we ordinarily take for flowers, are only the colored bracts which have grown greatly.
