Saffron-Colored Ixia

By Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Capture the grace of the Napoleonic period in your own home with this stunning reproduction of the iconic Saffron-Colored Ixia (Ixia Crocata) by Pierre-Joseph Redouté. First published from 1802 to 1816 in his magnificent folio publication, Les Liliacées, this print is the result of Redouté’s commission directly by Empress Joséphine Bonaparte herself.

This print perfectly showcases the remarkable orange blossoms and detailed stamen structure of this exotic South African African Corn Lily (syn. Tritonia crocata), captured by Redouté from the Empress’s gardens at Malmaison. Perfectly suited for either contemporary or classic decor, this beautiful botanical reproduction offers the best of both worlds.
