Othoniel Rosa

Othoniel Rosa was inspired by Jean-Michel Othoniel’s exhibition The Rose of the Louvre. He highlights a reinterpretation of a single vivid red rose painted by Rubens in the painting ‘The Marriage of Mary of Medici and Henry IV’, the flower which Othoniel chose as the iconic flower of the Louvre. This queen of flowers is a symbol of sensuality, power and passion; it embodies the essence of the fate of Mary of Medici, her passion, the history of France and the Louvre Museum.
