REDOUTÉ (Pierre-Joseph). Album des plus belles Roses de Redouté. Paris, [circa 1830]. - Album folio, 471 x 322: portrait, 24 plates. Unbleached moire, wide gilt and cold-rolled borders on covers, gilt album title on first cover, smooth spine, pink moire lining, white moiré paper endpapers, gilt edges, flap folder, red cloth spines (period binding). Very rare edition of this album featuring a sample of 25 plates from Redouté's Roses. Redouté's Roses appeared in 3 folio volumes between 1817 and 1824, shortly after the artist's other fine publication devoted to Liliaceae, published in 8 volumes between 1802 and 1816. These two publications made Redouté famous, and he was dubbed the "Raphael of flowers". The success of the Roses in particular was such that reprints in in-8 format were quickly conceived, as well as collections of a selection of some of the most beautiful flowers. The present collection is extremely rare, unknown to Hunt, and we have found only one other copy described in the Audenet sale of March 1841. It appears to be a completely confidential publication, intended as a gift. The album contains a total of 25 plates, including 23 of roses, printed on vellum paper in folio format. They are almost identical to those in the 1817-1824 edition, except that the roses have a number engraved in the plate in the upper right-hand corner, which does not appear on the proofs of the edition but indicates the order in which they are to appear in the work. They are clearly marked "Imprimerie de Rémond" in the lower center, with the engravers' names on the right and Redouté's ("P. J. Redouté pinx.") on the left. Here are the contents, with the number engraved in the corner in brackets: - portrait of Redouté engraved by Pradier after Gérard, dated 1811 and captioned "P. J. Redouté, Peintre de Fleurs", - rose wreath engraved by Charlin, including, gilded in the center, 5 Greek verses from Anacreon's Ode V, - Rosa centifola foliacea.
