Emotions Language Meaning Sentiments Thoughts
EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful vintage print, titled "The Language of Flowers," dates back to circa 1908 and offers a captivating glimpse into the romantic and symbolic world of floral language. The image features an exquisite arrangement of various flowers, each accompanied by its corresponding sentiment or emotion written in French. The Language of Flowers, also known as Floral Language or Floristry, is an ancient practice that assigns meaning to different types of flowers based on their physical attributes and historical significance. This art form was particularly popular during the Victorian era when expressing emotions through flowers became a popular and socially acceptable way to convey feelings that were otherwise difficult to articulate. In this print, each flower bears a handwritten inscription in French, revealing the sentiment or emotion it represents. For instance, the red rose, with its message of "Amour," symbolizes deep love and passion. The lily of the valley, with its inscription of "Retour," signifies a return or a reunion. The daisy, with its message of "Innocence," represents purity and innocence. The intricate details of the flowers and the delicate script of the inscriptions add to the overall charm and allure of this vintage print. It makes for a thoughtful and unique gift for someone special, allowing you to express your emotions and sentiments through the universal language of flowers. This beautiful piece of art is a testament to the enduring power of flowers to evoke emotions, convey thoughts, and touch the heart.
