Photobook Book of Flowers

Queen Marie-Antoinette was enthusiastic about his precise and graceful floral images, as was Josephine Bonaparte: Pierre-Joseph Redouté, undeterred by the turmoil of the French Revolution, produced hundreds of floral plates that made him the legendary doyen of flower painting. The hand-coloured engravings in this volume evoke the beauty and splendour of long-forgotten Parisian gardens and greenhouses. - Author: Pierre-Joseph Redouté - Hardcover with 500 pages - Multilingual edition: English, German, French - Publisher: Taschen GmbH Made in Germany
