Hairy Garlic

By Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Infuse your home with elegant class through this botanical illustration of the Hairy Garlic (Allium Subhirsutum) plant, which was initially designed by the celebrated French artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté. This artwork is drawn from Redouté’s masterpiece “Les Liliacées” of the 19th century.

This masterpiece utilizes Redouté’s special stipple engraving method to depict the graceful, starry white flowers growing in a lovely umbel form and against silvery-green foliage. The plant gets its unique name due to the presence of minute, hairlike cilia found on the leaf margins.

From complementing your kitchen with a rustic touch to enhancing your study with a scholarly ambiance, this classic botanical illustration of the French artist would make a perfect addition.
