2.0 out of 5 stars Look elsewhere for conspicuous floral elements..., August 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Decorative Floral Woodcuts of the Sixteenth Century (Dover Pictorial Archives) (Paperback)
The title is "Decorative Floral Woodcuts", well they do appear to be woodcuts
but I would have to say the "Floral" element is few and far between.
These woodcuts are mostly plants heavy in leaf material with inconspicuous fruits & tiny
nondescript flowers.

They are beautiful for what they are, but if you are looking for hearty floral elements
this probably wont do it for you.
