This collection brings together two defining threads of Victorian culture: the Pre-Raphaelite movement and the language of flowers. Blooms appear throughout the work of Pre-Raphaelite artists, lush and beautiful but rarely without meaning. Each painting is explored through the flowers within it, revealing the stories and symbolism hidden in the details. With notes by Debra N. Mancoff.
