It is very fortunate that the imagination lends so much poetry to the senses, and that the desires of the body make thus much concession to the dreams of the soul. Alexandre Dumas fils, LaDame Aux Camellias

{HISTORY}

Camellias are a centuries-old botanical variety that originated in Asia where they were cultivated for their oil for both cooking and for tea. Since the beginning, they have been inspiring other artistic pursuits, beyond the kitchen and garden as well. Coco Chanel was so enchanted by them she designated them her favorite flower and incorporated them into her fashion designs. Alexandre Dumas fil wrote an entire novel centered around them, and artists throughout history have attempted to capture their unique beauty on paper and canvas.  With over 3000 varieties, there are a bevy to focus attention on, but our vintage framed botanical offered here features the Camellia Regina d'Italia, a beautiful tightly petaled pink variety that holds its own against a rose any day.
