The Roses pattern is the most widely known textile pattern among printed silk fabric designs. From ancient times roses symbolized the desire for love and beauty, and many designs were inspired by roses. Tudor Pattern, a symbol of the Tudor dynasty that ruled England in the 16th century, is one of the most widely known rose designs.
There are arts and crafts movement artists, including William Morris, who features a variety of shapes but flat designs. A more realistic design is Pierre-Joseph Redoute of France, which was commissioned by Queen Josephine. People called him "Raphaello of the Rose," and his design inspired many designers from the 19th century to the present.
As a designer to represent the 20th century, the abstract rose from Paul Poiret, a French designer who worked from the First World War until the 1920s, is widely known.
