Summary

This lavishly illustrated book demonstrates the power of cut flowers to move the onlooker, a power crucial to the adop-tion of flowers in every culture to symbolize life, beauty, and death. All religions have flowers at the heart of their faith. Art has proved an enduring companion in the repre-sentation of the power of flowers to move. Flower Power brings together a wide variety of ravishing ren-derings and photographs of the cut flower in the history of fine and decorative art since 1500. It explains their symbolic meanings and demonstrates the response that flowers evoke in people everywhere. The illustrations of flowers in many different cultures around the world highlight the differences between faiths and traditions.
