Description
|
|
|
|
Coveted by kings and admired by gardeners in ancient and modern times alike, the tulip has at times brought nations close to moral and economic ruin. The Tulip Anthology is a gorgeously illustrated celebration of this astonishing and beloved flower, pairing Ron van Dongen's vivid color photographs and closeups—up to 22 x 14 inches—with artworks from the last thousand years, both illuminating writings on the mystery and wonder of the tulip from throughout human history. A foreword by tulip expert Anna Pavord explores the bloom's rich cultural history.
