Susan Loy has compiled a unique American floral dictionary based on the historic language of flowers. The dictionary includes a vocabulary of 1,400 flowers with their associated sentiments as well as 1,500 sentiments with their associated flowers. The tradition of associating flowers with sentiments or virtues is ancient and universal. It was formalized in Victorian England, France, and America with the publication of books containing a dictionary of flowers with their corresponding meanings. In the language of flowers, the red rose means love while the lily of the valley signifies the return of happiness. Every flower symbolizes a trait drawn from life and nature. This book grew out of the Susan Loy's use of this tradition to create a series of Literary Calligraphy® watercolor paintings called "The Language of Flowers Series." The book includes twenty~eight color reproductions of these exquisitely detailed paintings, which contain a total of 139 individual flower drawings. Each painting incorporates hand~lettered poems or texts expressing meanings related to love, nature, peace, serenity, friendship, and many more. Flowers, the Angels' Alphabet will be of interest to gardeners and flower lovers wanting to know the meanings of the flowers around them. The comprehensive dictionary listings and extensive cross references will delight artists, designers, florists, gardeners, writers, and anyone who appreciates a lovely flower.…
