Cyclamen by Pierre-Joseph Redouté, 1802

Cyclamen, created in 1802 by the renowned botanical artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté, captures the delicate beauty of the Cyclamen plant through intricate detailing and vibrant colorization. Redouté, celebrated as one of the greatest botanical illustrators, dedicated much of his career to painting the exquisite flora of Château de Malmaison at the behest of Josephine Bonaparte. His dedication and unparalleled skill in botanical artistry allowed him to become a sought-after painting tutor to notable figures such as Marie Antoinette.

You can now bring this timeless piece of botanical art into your home with a high-quality fine art print from The Unique Maps Co. This personalized art print is carefully handcrafted and printed on luxurious archival matte paper, ensuring longevity without fading or wrinkling. We also offer restoration and personalization options to perfectly suit your space or gift needs.

Pierre-Joseph Redouté is remembered for contributing significantly to botanical art, publishing over 2,100 paintings of more than 1,800 species throughout his career. His work at Château de Malmaison, starting from 1798, is rich with history and artistry, illustrating the intersection of nature and art during the Victorian era. The Cyclamen illustration, originally featured in "Les Liliacées," is a testament to his mastery of detail and color—an artwork that gracefully blends scientific accuracy with artistic elegance.

Owning a print of Cyclamen offers more than just aesthetic value; it serves as an homage to the artistry of one of history’s finest botanical illustrators. The lifelike depiction and use of vivid colors make this print a striking addition to any space, inviting admiration and appreciation for nature’s delicate intricacies.

This print makes an exceptional gift for birthdays, Christmas, Mother's Day, or housewarming occasions. It is perfect for those who cherish art, botanical subjects, and the timeless beauty of Pierre-Joseph Redouté's work.

If you're not sure what size to order, or you're looking for a custom order of some kind – a different size, a different colour, a special frame – then please contact me. I usually respond within a few minutes.

You can see an example of my fine art personalisation service in the fifth image. Zoom in and take a look. My personalised artwork is always very well received. Take a look at more examples of personalisation.

You can also choose to age your art print to make it look older. This is popular amongst my customers who want their artwork to look like an older, antique print. You can see an example of ageing in the sixth product image, or go ahead and check out lots of examples of other aged artwork.

The model in the listing images is holding the 18x24in (45x60cm) version of this art print.

I can print and frame this beautiful piece of art at sizes up to 3 metres (10ft). If you are looking for a size or framing option that isn't available online, please get in touch.

This artwork is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. My standard frames come in six colours (black, dark brown, dark grey, antique gold, oak and white), and custom framing is available for an additional charge. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.

My standard frame is a gallery style black ash hardwood frame. It is simple and quite modern looking. My standard frame is around 20mm (0.8in) wide.

I use super-clear acrylic (perspex/acrylite) for the frame glass. It's lighter and safer than glass - and it looks better, as the reflectivity is lower.

Six standard frame colours are available for free (black, dark brown, dark grey, oak, white and antique gold). Custom framing and mounting/matting is available if you're looking for something else.

Most maps are also available as a framed canvas. The map is printed on matte (not shiny) canvas, stretched over a box frame, and then 'floated' within a simple wood frame. The end result is quite beautiful, and there's no glazing in front of your map.

All frames are provided "ready to hang", with either a string or brackets on the back. Very large frames will have heavy duty hanging plates and/or a mounting baton. If you have any questions, please get in touch.

See some examples of my framed maps and framed canvas maps.

Alternatively, I can also supply old maps on canvas, foam board, cotton rag and other materials.

If you want to frame your map yourself, please read my map size guide first.

For most orders, delivery time is about 3 working days. Personalised and custom made maps take longer, as I have to do the personalisation and send it to you for approval, which usually takes a day or two.

Please note that for larger framed orders (over 40in/100cm), and some other framed sizes, the delivery time will be closer to 7-10 days.

If you need your order to arrive by a certain date, please contact me before you order so that we can find the best way of making sure you get your order in time.

I print and frame maps in 22 countries around the world. This means your map will be made locally, which cuts down on delivery time and reduces the chance of your map being damaged during delivery. There won't be any extra taxes or duties to pay, and we'll put less CO2 into the air.

All of my maps are well packaged and sent in a rugged tube if unframed, or surrounded by foam if framed.

I try to send out all maps within 1 or 2 days of receiving your order, though some products (like face masks or mugs) can take longer to make.

If you select Express Delivery at checkout your order we will prioritise your order and send it out by 1-day courier (Fedex, DHL, UPS, Parcelforce).

We can sometimes do next-day delivery if you order before 10am. But usually it's best to contact me first before you order.
