Redouté's pasture rose as a Prussian blue cyanotype on warm washi paper, with brushed edges and soft staining, after Anna Atkins's 19th-century botanical cyanotypes.
The original
“Pasture Rose (Rosa Carolina Corymbosa)” by Pierre-Joseph Redouté (French, 1759–1840), 1817–24, is in the public domain. The image comes from the Cleveland Museum of Art, which shares it under CC0 (no rights reserved).
The print
Tiraj turns the engraving into a cyanotype, the iron-based sun print: a single Prussian blue that holds the shadows of the petals and leaves, with hand-brushed edges and light chemical staining.
The paper tone is part of the artwork; print on white matte paper. The warm washi fibres, brush edges and stains are printed into the file.

Printing tips
Use heavyweight white matte paper (200 gsm or more, archival matte or cotton rag). Print at 100% / actual size, not 'fit to page', and pick the file that matches your frame.
Colours can vary slightly between screens and printers.
