Pierre Joseph Redoute (1759-1840) is considered by many the most important of all botanical painters. Redoute employed the newly invented method of stipple in his publications. Stipple was an engraving process in which the image was composed of a series of dots on a copper plate, and then tinting was added to the plate itself. This process, so expertly applied by Langlois, gives the works of Redoute their unusual softness and distinctive feel.
