Pink Noisette - Rosa Noisettiana Purpurea

by Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Transform your interiors with the timeless beauty of the French gardens of Empress Josephine. The Rosa Noisettiana Purpurea, known commonly as the Pink Noisette, is one of the most famous paintings by Pierre-Joseph Redouté in his groundbreaking book, Les Roses of the 19th century. Known as the “Raphael of Flowers,” Redouté developed the stipple engraving technique to illustrate the lightness of the specific hybrid cluster roses.

Famous for his highly realistic stipple engravings, Redouté perfectly portrays the deep blush tones of the petals, thorny vines, and botanical details of the roses typical of French court art during the 19th century.
