But it also coincided with a Victorian obsession with botany gardening and flower arranging. As a result painters such as Rosetti Millais and Hughes populated their works with floral symbols that were steeped in religious and cultural significance. This stunning book examines the greatest of these works including portraits of Hamlet's Ophelia the Virgin Mary and figures from Greek mythology and medieval lore. Each entry features a full - page reproduction of the painting accompanied by smaller details and an engaging text that offers fascinating background and contextual clues to deepen readers appreciation of the Pre - Raphaelite language. As lush and colorful as a late summer bouquet this book is the perfect gift for lovers of flowers as well as for fans of romantic Victorian art.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The Pre - Raphaelite Language Of Flowers\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Mancoff Debra N.\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Prestel\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9783791377353\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 96 Pages, 40\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 7\/9\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Art \u0026amp; Design Styles: Pre-Raphaelite Art","brand":"Mancoff Debra N.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49627804139825,"sku":"IN-G-9783791377353","price":20.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9783791377353.jpg?v=1724981728","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9783791377353-the-pre-raphaelite-language-of-flowers","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
