About the book:
Gloriously illustrated with watercolors from The Book of Memory by Fanny Robinson, accompanied by verses from English, French, and American poets, this book explores how the Victorian “language of flowers” was inspired and evolved, able to send coded messages to a friend or lover through a lovely bouquet. Gill Saunders, a curator in the Department of Prints, Drawings and Paintings at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, provides detailed commentary on the art and the flowers depicted; Gill Davies provides additional floral facts and meanings from around the world
