I had bought this print on ebay for 1.80....shipping 3.00....it's quite nice...about 20 years old....it's 10.5 by 13 inches or so
Redoute is to botanical art as Michaelangelo is to marble sculpture, as Raphael is to painting, and as Audubon is to American wildlife art. In fact, the leading authorities of his time dubbed Redoute "the Raphael of flowers" due to the sheer multitude of exquisitely astounding roses he depicted so splendidly
Very Pretty Bob !
allison...i like it a lot and, of course..the price was right
That's lovely! Where will it reside in your house?
laurie..i'm putting it in a frame..and it will go on the wall in the front room here...i have a very small mobile home..with TOO MANY WINDOWS...so not too much choice..lol
ooooohhhh..... gorgeous! Redoute is one of my favorite artists! I've got 3 old prints of his work hanging in the dining room, including one that hung in my grandmother's bedroom for years. I also have a couple of similar prints by Prevost.... no gessies in the bouquets, though! LOL That is a great find -- and what a bargain price!
think..there was another listed for 4.00 or something like that...i found it listed under streptocarpus on ebay..here's the ebay number..ck his store..might have more
7381147237..
Dang, all he's got listed right now is an NBA poster! LOL Not at all the same.... I'll have to check back with him another time.
A very beautiful find! I'm jealous....
