Rosa Centifolia (Centilled Rose) Version 3 is an engraving that highlights the exceptional beauty of this rose variety with its delicate flowers and elegant leaves. Pierre-Joseph Redouté, a famous 18th-century botanical illustrator, demonstrates his expertise in depicting the different floral shades and shapes.
In the publication dated 1827 from which the plate is taken, the detail of this illustration is given as follows:
The Hundred-leaf Rose (Rosa centifolia L.) has been cultivated in gardens for so long that its place of origin is uncertain today. However, it is believed to have originated in Asia Minor and Persia. Cultivation has given rise to a prodigious number of varieties, all of extremely beautiful shapes and colors, exuding an excessively sweet odor. It is from the Hundred-leaf Rose that the volatile rose oil, whose fragrance is so diffusible, is extracted by distillation. In this work, Mr. Redouté has devoted several plates to various varieties of this admirable flower.
