Rose of Philippe - Rosa Noisettiana

by Pierre-Joseph Redouté

Add the romantic flair of the French court during the 19th century with this stunning botanical print. Beautifully illustrated by Pierre-Joseph Redouté—the famed painter who is regularly referred to as the “Raphael of Flowers”—Rosa Noisettiana (Noisette Rose / Rose of Philippe) presents the beautiful clusters of blush-white petals and pink buds that are unique to the legendary Noisette roses.

The original botanical artwork was created between 1817 and 1824 in Paris and employs the artist’s famous color stipple engraving process with hand-painting. The simple background allows the eye to take note of the lush, natural green leaves and the beautiful golden centers found in each flowering bloom. This is a stunning union of botanical precision and aesthetic artistry.
