Pierre-Joseph Redouté (10 July 1759 - 19 June 1840), was a painter and botanist from Belgium, known for his watercolours of roses, lilies and other flowers at the Château de Malmaison, many of which were published as large, coloured stipple engravings.

He was nicknamed "the Raphael of flowers" and has been called the greatest botanical illustrator of all time.

Redouté produced over 2,100 published plates depicting over 1,800 different species, many never rendered before.
