Shipping price will be calculated at checkout.
Flowers, trees and leaves carry meanings that reach far beyond their appearance. In Plant Magick, Jessica Hundley explores the botanical world as a source of artistic inspiration, spiritual symbolism and ceremony, following the long relationship between plants and human imagination.
Volume IV of TASCHEN’s Library of Esoterica moves from ancient imagery and Renaissance painting to contemporary visionary art. Its subjects include plants as signs of renewal, mourning and transformation, and their place in rituals that mark the transitions of life. The visual journey encourages readers to consider why a flower or tree can carry such emotional and symbolic force within an artwork.
This substantial 520-page hardback is suited to readers interested in the meeting of art, nature and belief. It offers a broad illustrated exploration for browsing and returning to, with particular appeal for admirers of symbolism and botanical imagery. A thoughtful companion to a collection concerned with the spiritual, mysterious and ceremonial dimensions of visual culture.
