The Language of Flowers

This is a beautiful book full of lovely artwork and snips of poetry. It explains the origins of the flowers meanings whether from history, mythology or religion. I mainly love it for the artwork which I could look at for hours. With each page I turned I was more and more impressed by the artist. This book was originally published in France under the title Le langage des fleurs by Editions du Chene–Hachette Livre. I will certainly be keeping this book in my permanent library.
