Bring yourself back to the golden era of botanical illustration using this amazing piece entitled “Caroline’s Garlic” (Allium Carolinianum), captured exquisitely through the works of the “Raphael of Flowers,” Pierre-Joseph Redouté. Published between 1802-1815 in Paris, in one of his most famous books consisting of eight volumes named Les Liliacées, the image combines both scientific and artistic approaches to perfection.The work of Redouté, capturing this extremely rare species of wild garlic known for being native to high mountain terrains of the Himalayas, is known for its stunning use of stipple engraving technique. The image beautifully presents the natural features of this plant, ranging from its delicate scape, globe umbels, and even bulbs. The print is made in soft, elegant colors giving it a natural and luxurious touch suitable for all kinds of decors.
