Description
Lovely watercolor white orchids, soft against a botanical background of eucalyptus and palms. This elegant floral design is timeless as orchids have been around almost as long as mankind. This art print is part of a series of four orchid themed watercolor prints.
In ancient China, Confucius compared virtuous people to the orchid because both shared the characteristics of a perfectly cultured being, including refinement and humility.
White orchids are rich with symbolic meaning. From the Aztecs and Ancient Greeks to Victorians, white orchids have been more than just pleasing decorations. Their shape led some cultures to associate them with virility while others associated the flowers with beauty and refinement.
Watermark will not appear on purchased print.
