About the artist

Born in either Châlons-en-Champagne or Moncetz, Aubriet became a botanical illustrator at Paris' Jardin du Roi. There, his skills caught the attention of Joseph Pitton de Tournefort (1656–1708), who enlisted him as an illustrator for his 1694 book, Elemens de Botanique. Joining Tournefort and Andreas von Gundelsheimer on a Middle East expedition (1700-1702), Aubriet sketched historic sites and regional flora. Returning to Paris, he continued working at the Jardin du Roi, contributing to Les Vélins du Roi. Appointed royal botanical painter in 1707, Aubriet retired in 1735 and was succeeded by Françoise Basseporte (1701–1780), his former student and collaborator. He died in Paris.
