Arrangement Blooms Bouquet Forget Myosotis Pla Nts Rosa Roses
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite decorative print, titled "Rosa and Forget-Me-Not: A Victorian Bouquet," transports us back in time to the late 19th century, showcasing the timeless beauty and elegance of a bygone era. Captured by an unidentified photographer and published by Mary Evans Picture Library, this photograph is a breathtaking example of Victorian floral artistry. The arrangement features an enchanting assortment of roses, their velvety petals unfurling in a riot of colors - from the deepest burgundy to the palest blush. These roses are artfully combined with delicate forget-me-nots and myosotis, their dainty blue blooms adding a touch of ethereal charm to the composition. The history of this bouquet can be traced back to the Victorian era, a time when flowers held deep symbolic meanings and were often used to convey emotions. Roses, in particular, were a favorite choice for their romantic associations, with each color representing different emotions - red roses symbolized love and passion, pink roses represented admiration, and white roses represented purity and innocence. Forget-me-nots, on the other hand, were a symbol of remembrance and fidelity, making them a popular addition to bouquets given as tokens of love and devotion. This decorative print, circa 1880, offers a glimpse into the rich history of floral artistry and the deep symbolism behind the Victorian language of flowers. It serves as a reminder of the enduring beauty and significance of these plants, which continue to captivate and inspire us to this day.
