Anemone-Flowered Sweetbriar Rose - Rosa Rubiginosa Anemone-Flora

by Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Evoke the grace of a French palace garden through this superbly crafted fine art print based on the renowned masterpiece by Pierre-Joseph Redouté, Rosa Rubiginosa Anemoneflora (the Anemone-Flowered Sweetbriar Rose). This work of art was created as part of the famous series of plates published by Pierre-Joseph Redouté in his 19th-century Les Roses collection, commissioned by Empress Joséphine Bonaparte and known as the “Raphael of Flowers.”

The image features the distinctive petals of the particular variety of Sweetbriar Rose combining the romantic pastel pink color of a wild rose with the unusual shape of the anemone flower. All the intricate elements of this plant such as petals of opening flowers, finely engraved leaves, and thorns of the briar were carefully recreated to ensure the highest quality of the print with all its nuances and stipple engraving texture.

The elegant botanical print would be an appropriate addition to any stylish gallery wall, sunroom, and even traditional library interior.
