Bridal Rose
Pictures by Step & BoisWords by Kate Greenaway
White bridal roses and a rosebud, drawn by Step & Bois, carry the meaning Kate Greenaway gave them, written inside: happy love. In Victorian times flowers carried secret messages, and Greenaway's Language of Flowers of 1884 was the best-loved guide to reading them. For a wife, husband or partner, or a couple celebrating their love.
