Published between 1805 and 1816, this botanical masterpiece spanned eight volumes and featured an array of vibrant illustrations like this one. The Amaryllis Formosissima takes center stage in this colored engraving, its delicate petals unfurling gracefully to reveal a rich crimson hue. Every intricate detail has been meticulously captured by Redoute's skilled hand, showcasing his profound understanding of botany and his ability to bring these natural wonders to life on paper. Displayed against a neutral background, the Amaryllis Formosissima commands attention with its striking presence. Its elegant form is accentuated by the artist's masterful use of light and shadow, creating depth and dimension within the illustration.
