The birds and bees and the flowers and the trees.....or in this case the butterflies and the bugs and the flowers and the shrubs....
In this literary celebration of Summer, Assouline evokes the beauty of the garden in a remarkable collectable coffee table book.
Including more than three centuries of drawings culled from the rare books library of the Cooper- Hewitt National Design Museum, each page in Botanicals explodes with rich colors and lifelike details.
Exquisite flowers, delicate fruits and exuberant butterflies are among the jewels of nature that come to life in this unique volume. Featuring works by leading botanical artists, including Maria Sibylla Merian, a revolutionary female entomologist and natural historian of the seventh century; E.A. Seguy, whose art nouveau-era work serves as inspiration for many contemporary creatives and designers; and Dr. Robert John Thornton, a British visionary renowned for his interest in botany.
Botanicals is truly a visual treat for the senses!

PS, I LOVE FALL!
Maybe its the subtle signals that let us know that it's time to head inside. Days get shorter. Mornings (and evenings) get cooler; we start thinking a warm cup of cocoa sounds better than a milkshake and a tureen of hot soup preferable to a chopped salad.
FALL reminds us of the joys of spending more time inside, from snuggling up in a favorite chair with a good book to entertaining family and friends with inspired tablescapes.
It's the perfect time to add some NEW FALL FAVORITES to your environment. Inspired pieces that will surprise and delight your guests (and make you smile) this FALL and beyond.
So please take a moment to browse through our shop where we have featured some of our
FALL FAVORITES on the front page.
Just click on PS, I LOVE IT to the left to take a look!
