Product specs

The Rose Book explores the rose as far more than a garden flower, tracing the way it has appeared in art, fashion, fragrance, film and design across centuries and cultures. More than 200 images place botanical studies beside couture, photography and fine art, revealing how one familiar bloom can carry very different meanings.

  • Includes work connected with figures such as Georgia O’Keeffe, Vincent van Gogh, Christian Dior, Irving Penn and Alexander McQueen.
