Common or Trumpet Daffodil

By Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Experience the eternal beauty of the gardens of Empress Joséphine through this high-quality fine art print reproduction of the Common or Trumpet Daffodil (Narcisse Blanc) by Pierre-Joseph Redouté. Published in his renowned work Les Liliacées from 1802 to 1816, the print represents the graceful elegance of the first weeks of spring.

Dubbed the "Raphael of Flowers," Redouté was able to harmoniously blend the demands of rigorous scientific precision with artistic romanticism. In addition to capturing the beautiful features of the narcissus flower—its pure white petals and stunning central trumpet cup—the artist rendered the plant’s thin strap-like green leaves and stalks with incredible attention to detail. The use of the stipple-engraving technique and subtle gradients in the hand coloring lends realism and life to the print. Great for adding an elegant touch to your traditional, farmhouse, or modern décor.
