EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "The Royal Virgin Rose without Thorns" transports us back to the year 1745. Created by the talented artist Georg Dionysius Ehret, this exquisite print showcases a remarkable botanical wonder - the Rosa pendulina, commonly known as the royal virgin rose. Intriguingly, this particular species of rose is unique in its thornless nature. The delicate petals and graceful curves of each flower are beautifully captured in this artwork, inviting us to marvel at its natural beauty. The attention to detail is impeccable; every petal seems to come alive with vibrant hues that have been carefully applied by hand. As we gaze upon this enchanting composition, we cannot help but be reminded of the wonders of nature and the diversity it holds. This print serves as a testament to Ehret's skill as an artist and his deep appreciation for botany. Housed within a private collection belonging to The Stapleton Collection, this rare piece offers us a glimpse into both history and artistry. It reminds us that even centuries ago, artists like Ehret were able to capture moments of awe-inspiring beauty through their craft. Now preserved for generations to come thanks to Bridgeman Images' dedication to archiving fine art prints, "The Royal Virgin Rose without Thorns" continues to inspire admiration for both its subject matter and artistic execution.
