This opus explores the symbolic representation and feelings linked to plants. This complex world, often graphic, coloured or perfumed, accompanies us daily. Sometimes cryptic, sometimes more conspicuous, they embellish, impregnate, decorate and arouse many feelings and sometimes contradictory representations. Discover them in this book: national flowers, coats of arms and heraldry; pigments and the language of flowers; olfactory and dye molecules; botanical ornaments and decorations; plant stones and elixirs.
As you read these pages, you will quickly realise the significant omnipresence of the world of plants in the symbolic and emotional perception of our living environment.
