Siberian Squill

By Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Add some regal beauty from the history of France into your home decor by framing this amazing reproduction of Scilla Amoena (Siberian Squill), created by the famous illustrator Pierre-Joseph Redouté. This particular artwork was originally published from 1802 to 1816 in his renowned work entitled "Les Liliacées," under the patronage of none other than the Empress Josephine Bonaparte herself.

Pierre-Joseph Redouté, who was known as the "Raphael of Flowers," used stipple engraving, an extremely difficult method of engraving that gives the flower its realistic look. He successfully captured the natural beauty of these flowers, including their colors, texture, and even their deep blue appearance, in this classic work. No background is included, making the floral illustration stand out on its own.
