FLORAL ART IN YOUR HOME

Madeleine Morin

Floral fashion 1973

In order to explain this superb book the only device I can turn to is to reproduce the Foreword;

" In order to preserve the essential character of the original French edition of this book most of the original illustrations have been retained in the English edition.

The sensitively worded French text has been closely translated, and then edited by Mr. Harold Piercy, Principle of the Constance Spry Flower School, to whom we are greatly indebted.

English readers will quickly realise that this book is not in the classic style of English Floral Art but will be enchanted inspired by the beauty and inventiveness of an alternative discipline which can help to add a totally new dimension to their own arrangements.

The practical advice regarding colour, choice of plant, shape, and the many other aspects of the art, provides valuable guidance regardless of national traditions.

Apart from slight edge wear and a small chip to the surface of the laminate at the top rear next to the spine, the book is in very good condition.
