Description

I had great fun creating art to match. In the language of flowers, the rose represents "Love & Devotion". I put these two together on antique paper. The paper is from 1884 "People's Cyclopedia of Universal Knowledge... Somehow, it seems fitting to repurpose this charming view of our world 130 years ago, and use it to create art that inspires..

The rose is one of the most famous and beloved of all flowers. As William Shakespeare once wrote "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Roses have been revered for centuries. Historical evidence shows they were grown in China about 5,000 years ago and they have continued to play a part in history ever since.

What does the Rose Flower Mean?

The rose has many meanings which vary depending on its color. However any rose can be commonly seen as a symbol of:
Love - Honor - Faith - Beauty - Balance - Devotion & Timelessness
