Satin Flower

By Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Embrace the enduring romance of the French imperial gardens in your own abode. Here is a fine reproduction that brings to life the masterful touch of Pierre-Joseph Redouté, one of the most famed artists known as the “Raphael of Flowers.” Painted under commission from Empress Josephine Bonaparte in her renowned chateau at Malmaison, this artwork portrays the pale yellow-eyed grass (Sisyrinchium Striatum) which is alternatively called the Satin Flower.

With his iconic stipple engraving technique, Redouté brings to life the beautiful contours and forms of the plant, accentuating its structural elegance, creamy pale-yellow flowers, and elegant foliage. The piece would be perfect for vintage interiors such as cottage core, French country, or traditional rooms.
