Pair of Framed Pierre-Joseph Redouté Botanical Rose Prints

This is a pair of vintage botanical art prints featuring roses, designed after the neoclassical works of the renowned 19th-century botanical artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté. Each print showcases a central, detailed rose specimen—one in deep magenta-pink and the other in a lighter apricot-pink—rendered with scientific accuracy including buds, leaves, and thorny stems. The prints feature cursive scientific nomenclature at the bottom, typical of the 'Les Roses' series. They are housed in slender, rectangular wooden frames finished in a warm gold-tone/bronze gilt with a delicate beaded or rope-twist texture along the inner edge. The background of the prints exhibits a soft cream or light beige tonality, likely due to paper aging or original tinting. There is visible minor foxing and subtle discoloration consistent with 20th-century reproductions of antique stipple engravings. The framing style and paper quality suggest these are mid-to-late 20th-century decorative pieces rather than original 1820s folios. The craftsmanship is standard for high-quality vintage home décor, with tight mitred corners on the frames and glass glazing protectively covering the lithographs.
