Botanical Art: Pierre-Joseph Redouté Rosa Muscosa Botanical Print

A beautifully framed vintage mid-to-late 20th-century premium portfolio print of Pierre-Joseph Redouté’s legendary botanical masterpiece, Rosa muscosa multiplex.

Professionally set under an elegant olive-sage green mat board inside a dark wood frame with a fine gold inner liner, this substantial wall piece is ready to display. Bring the royal elegance of nineteenth-century French botanical art to your interior with this exceptional vintage reproduction plate of Pierre-Joseph Redouté’s iconic pink Moss Rose. The artwork captures a fully bloomed, multi-petaled rose head rendered in delicate shades of blush and deep rose-pink, offset by heavily textured, mossy green calyxes and sharp thorns along the stem. The classical French botanical cursive script adds immediate historical prestige to the bottom border. Elegantly mounted beneath a wide, muted olive-sage green mat board and finished in a rich dark wood frame with a fine gold inner accent border, this ready-to-hang piece brings classic garden romance to any wall.

Original Intended Use: Premium Interior Fine Art and Classical Botanical Study Display. Alternate suggested use: Anchor this piece on a bedroom feature wall, style it above a traditional white porcelain wash basin in a bathroom, or pair it with classic brass accents over a living room fireplace mantle.
More Details
  • This fine art plate features Rosa muscosa multiplex (Rosier mousseux à fleurs doubles), originally illustrated by Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759–1840), the preeminent botanical artist of the French royal courts.
  • The bottom plate margin faithfully replicates the original historic signature and engraving attributes: "P. J. Redouté pinx." (painted by Redouté) on the lower left, "Imprimerie de Rémond" (the historic Parisian printing house) at the center, and "Langlois sculp." (engraved by Gabriel Langlois) on the lower right.
  • The smooth paper composition, modern printing clarity, and pristine white borders identify this piece as a premium folio print plate salvaged from a mid-to-late 20th-century European art retrospective portfolio.
  • It is professionally mounted under a custom olive-sage green mat board and housed in a vintage dark wood frame with a gilded inner fillet liner.
Did you Know?

The painter of this rose, Pierre-Joseph Redouté, was so incredibly famous for his botanical illustrations that he was hired as the personal art tutor to Queen Marie Antoinette at the Palace of Versailles! Later, he became the official court painter for Empress Joséphine Bonaparte, cataloguing all the rare, exotic roses she grew in her world-renowned gardens at Château de Malmaison. This print is a high-quality vintage 20th-century reproduction of his original 1817 copperplate engraving from the highly prized master portfolio Les Roses.
