Pompon Rose

Henry Joseph Redouté

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a botanical illustration of a rose bush with two fully bloomed roses and several buds. The roses are a deep red color with yellow centers and have many petals. The leaves are green and oval-shaped, with pointed tips. The stem is thin and green. There are several buds on the bush, some of which are still closed. The background of the image is a light beige color. The text at the bottom of the image reads "Rosa Pomponia Burgundiaca" and "Le Pompon de Bourgogne". The overall style of the illustration is detailed and realistic, suggesting it may be from an old botanical book or catalog.
