About the flowers,
This review is from: The Medieval Flower Book (Hardcover)
The Medieval Flower Book is a lovely hardcover book about various flowers with a medieval illustration or two for each one. The emphasis is on the flowers themselves, where and why they were grown, and how they were used, with full the medieval drawings as illustrations. Each flower gets a one or two page treatment with minimal text. It's a good gift book.
I'd like to compare this with Flowers in Medieval Manuscripts, by the same author, which is a paperback that shows how the flowers were used in manuscripts as decoration, or as instruction, and how they were drawn. I actually find this book to be the more interesting of the two, especially if you are into caligraphy or illustration. I like both books. |
