Indian Ginger

By Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Bring the grandeur of the imperial French garden into your interior with this unique artwork reproduction of "Indian Ginger" (Globba Erecta). The illustration is part of the famous series Les Liliacées, first published in 1802–1816, and is plate number 174 from this work. It was done upon the commission of Empress Joséphine Bonaparte who used them to document her botanical garden at the Château de Malmaison.

The illustration skillfully presents the coral veined flower against the backdrop of long green leaves against a simple and elegant ivory background. The absence of the scene creates a truly timeless masterpiece of a "portrait," perfectly balancing between accurate scientific documentation and graceful artistic depiction. Ideal for a botanical theme on the wall, this reproduction brings the best out of this golden age of natural science illustration.
