Othoniel examined the museum (where  nothing has been moved since its owners died) and photographed the flowers in the  tapestries, ironwork, architecture, furnishings and paintings, in such masterpieces  as van Dyck’s ‘Portrait of a Woman’ with its innocuous rose, Piermatteo d’Amelia’s  ‘Annunciation’ with its majestic lily and Bartolomé Bermejo’s ‘Saint Engracia’ with its  enigmatic palm. This giftworthy volume presents his art-historical ABC of these flowers,  from Acanthus to Zea Mays.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Actes Sud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54227919274328,"sku":"9782330048129","price":38.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9782330048129_9556ca7e-b9a6-4288-b1c1-4b75d78046c5.jpg?v=1778903116","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/secret-language-of-flowers","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
