Seguir leyendoPierre Joseph Redouté’s Pontederia cordata (1802–1816), published in 1802, presents the freshwater plant commonly known as pickerelweed with characteristic clarity and poise. Broad green leaves rise in a measured fan around slender stems, while the composition culminates in dense spikes of blue flowers. Set against an open cream ground, the specimen appears both abundant and carefully ordered: an entire plant reduced to its most informative forms without losing the vitality of its growth.
Redouté was celebrated as the “flower painter” of his age, admired for botanical studies that joined close observation to exceptional refinement. His work belongs to a period when natural history depended upon images not merely as decoration, but as instruments of study and identification. In this plate, scientific description and visual elegance are inseparable. The characteristic foliage, upright habit and clustered blossoms are made legible at a glance, yet the arrangement has the balance and rhythm of a consciously composed work of art.
A closer look
The eye is led upwards through the plant. At the lower centre, the leaves spread out in overlapping arcs, their elongated, heart-like forms gently curving towards the edges of the page. Fine veins run through their surfaces, while gradual shifts from pale to deeper green suggest their folds and changing angles. The stems are comparatively spare and vertical, giving the upper flowers room to register clearly against the pale background.
The blue flower spikes provide the strongest concentration of colour. Individual blooms are distinguished within each cluster through precise outlines, stippled detail and small touches of lighter blue and pale yellow. Rather than treating the flowers as a single decorative mass, Redouté preserves the structure of their separate petals. Soft tonal modelling gives the spikes a restrained sense of volume, while the absence of a conventional setting keeps attention firmly on the plant itself.
Smaller floral studies near the lower left isolate aspects of the blossom for closer examination. These supplementary details are easy to overlook beside the larger specimen, but they reveal the plate’s descriptive purpose: the viewer is shown not only the plant’s overall silhouette but also the construction of its flowers. Along the lower edge, the Latin name Pontederia cordata appears in flowing script, accompanied by a French vernacular caption. The lettering forms a graceful visual base beneath the rising stems.
Context and significance
Early nineteenth-century botanical illustration occupied a productive meeting point between art and science. Before photography could record plants directly, illustrators had to select, clarify and organise what mattered: the junction of stem and leaf, the shape of a bloom, the relationship between the whole specimen and its constituent parts. Redouté became especially admired because that process of clarification never feels mechanical. His plants remain recognisably living things, their leaves bending and their flowers opening with subtle irregularity.
Pontederia cordata exemplifies this balance. Its largely vertical structure is stabilised by the outward movement of the leaves, while the cool blue blossoms punctuate a restrained range of greens and cream. The result is at once a botanical record and an exceptionally disciplined composition—one that rewards both an interest in plant life and a closer appreciation of how scientific knowledge can be shaped through line, colour and space.
Choosing the right size and finish
Artwork can feel intimate at smaller sizes and dramatically more architectural at larger ones. Use the room preview, model image and size guide to see how the proportions and scale will work in your space.
If you need an exact size, specialist framing or help planning a larger display, ask our workshop for advice.
The model in the listing images is holding the 36x24in (90x60cm) version of this art print.
Where personalisation is available, you can add a short title or dedication, or one considered visual detail. See examples of personalised artwork.
Choose Original to retain the colour and character of the source artwork, or Aged for a warmer, more antique appearance. See examples of our Aged artwork.
Every piece is produced to archival standards using fade-resistant pigment inks on acid-free matte art paper. Choose an art print, framed art print or framed canvas using the finish options above.
Framed art prints use crystal-clear optical acrylic for excellent clarity, lower weight and safer delivery than glass. Each piece arrives professionally framed and ready to hang.
Selected artworks can be produced at statement sizes up to 3 metres (10ft). Custom sizing and specialist framing are also available. If the exact option you need is not listed, contact our workshop.
This artwork is also available as a float framed canvas, sometimes known as a shadow gap framed canvas or canvas floater. The work is printed on artist's cotton canvas and then stretched over a handmade box frame. We then "float" the canvas inside a wooden frame, which is available in a range of colours (black, dark brown, oak, antique gold and white). This is a wonderful way to present an art print without glazing in front. See some examples of float framed canvas art and explore the differences between my different finishes.

Mi marco estándar es un marco de madera de fresno negro estilo galería. Es simple y tiene un aspecto bastante moderno. Mi marco estándar tiene alrededor de 20 mm (0.8 in) de ancho.
Utilizo acrílico super claro (perspex/acrylite) para el vidrio del marco. Es más ligero y seguro que el vidrio, y se ve mejor, ya que la reflectividad es menor.
Seis colores de marco estándar están disponibles de forma gratuita (negro, marrón oscuro, gris oscuro, roble, blanco y oro antiguo).El enmarcado y montaje/matizado personalizado está disponible si buscas algo diferente.
La mayoría de los mapas, arte e ilustraciones también están disponibles como un lienzo enmarcado. Utilizamos lienzo de algodón mate (no brillante), lo estiramos sobre un marco de madera de caja de origen sostenible, y luego 'flotamos' la pieza dentro de un marco de madera. El resultado final es bastante hermoso, y no hay cristal que se interponga.
Todos los marcos se proporcionan "listos para colgar", con una cuerda o soportes en la parte posterior. Los marcos muy grandes tendrán placas de colgar de alta resistencia y/o un listón de montaje. Si tienes alguna pregunta, por favor ponte en contacto.
Mira algunos ejemplos de mis mapas enmarcados y mapas en lienzo enmarcados.
Alternativamente, también puedo proporcionar mapas antiguos y obras de arte en lienzo, tablero de espuma, papel de algodón y otros materiales.
Si deseas enmarcar tu mapa o obra de arte tú mismo, por favor lee mi guía de tamaños primero.
