From the ‘Luxe Nature’ gift-line series from Reed New Holland, this is a
beautiful collection of artworks and inspirational quotes about orchids
from around the world, from sun orchids and slipper orchids to duck orchids
and the spectacular Queen of Sheba. Thanks to a seemingly endless range of
shapes, colours and forms, orchids have fascinated people for as long as
anyone can remember. Their bright petals and sepals, which have a habit of
bringing a splash of colour to a forest or meadow, have inspired artists
and writers alike for many centuries, even millennia, while in recent
decades ornamental species of orchids have brightened millions of our
homes. This stunning book is intended as a celebration of the relationship
between orchids and people. Delightful watercolour paintings and other
artworks are coupled with quotes about orchids, or just about life in
general – some very well known and others less famous. So prepare for a
journey around the world, exploring the many aspects that we love about
these remarkable plants.
