EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite painting is a captivating representation of Rosa indica multipetala, also known as the Hundred-petalled China Rose, as depicted in Pierre Joseph Redoute's renowned horticultural masterpiece, "Les Roses," Volume 1, published in 1817. Redoute, a Belgian artist, is celebrated for his meticulous botanical illustrations, which showcase the intricacies and beauty of flowers in unprecedented detail. The Hundred-petalled China Rose is a remarkable variety of the Rosa genus, belonging to the Rosaceae family, and is native to Asia. This Eudicot, Angiosperm, and Magnoliophyta plant is a member of the Rosid clade and the Fabidae family. The plant is characterized by its large, stunning flowers, which can have up to several hundred petals, giving it an otherworldly appearance. This particular painting highlights the flower's delicate pink hues and the intricate interplay of its petals. The petals are arranged in concentric circles, with the outermost petals being smaller and gradually giving way to larger, inner petals. The center of the flower is adorned with golden stamens and a prominent pistil. Redoute's illustration not only serves as a testament to the artist's skill but also provides a valuable record of this beautiful and intriguing plant. The Hundred-petalled China Rose remains a popular subject for botanical enthusiasts and flower lovers alike, and this painting continues to inspire awe and admiration for its intricate beauty and the natural world it represents.
