About the book

The Rose Book by Phaidon Editors is a non-fiction book for adult readers.

Discover the extraordinary ways the universally beloved bloom has been depicted through time and culture, both within and beyond the garden. Featuring 220 exquisite images, The Rose Book reveals depictions as diverse as the plant's own endless varieties - from wild ramblers to cultivated Hybrid Teas, botanical illustrations to fashion design, fragrance to film, fine art to photography.

Works by figures such as Pierre-Joseph Redoute, Christian Dior, Georgia O'Keeffe, Irving Penn, Tiffany & Co., Alexander Mc Queen, Vincent van Gogh, and more are artfully paired to reveal intriguing juxtapositions. Captivating essays explore the horticultural history of the rose, the flower's abundant presence in fashion, and the storied use of its scent in fragrance and perfume.
