This set of Redoute' rose botanical prints came from a book originally printed in 1954 and reprinted in 1975. Unfortunately, when I acquired it, it had already been dismantled. Pierre-Joseph Redoute was a French botanical artist/printer/engraver whose career spanned the late 1700' and into the 1800's. After the French Revolution, Redoute's exquisite rose paintings caught the eye of the Empress Josephine, and she became his patron. These prints are on a heavy grade textured parchment paper. Although they are not in perfect condition, the few blemishes they have are not glaring, and some are correctable. Most of them have a small (1/4") backward bend, which is not creases and can be straightened. There are a few small spots of foxing, and some small soft creases. I can supply detailed descriptions upon request. The titles of the roses are as follows: 1. Rosa Gallica 2. Rosa flore 3. Rosa centifloria floicacea 4. Rosa muscosamultiplex 5. Rosa Indica Cruenta 6. Rosa Pumila 7. Rosa Eglanteria 8. Rosa Noisettiana 9. Rosa Damascena
10. Rosa centifolia Bullata 11. Rosa Gallica Paotiana.
