About this title

Synopsis

Victoria At Home with Roses pays tribute to this wondrous flower in all its incarnations, from rosebuds on the bedroom wallpaper to intricate needlepoint upholstery on the sofa, from bold china patterns to shy embroidered linens, from painted heirloom furniture to homemade potpourri. The rose has the power to create an "English cottage" look; transform the living room into a wedding celebration; set the table for tea for two or a Christmas banquet for twenty. It sweetens both bed and bath with rose-patterned linens and scents of rosy sachets and pomanders. And, of course, it makes even the tiniest garden sublime, turns the simplest bouquet into a masterpiece. More than 120 photographs stand as eloquent proof of the wonder and beauty of this flower at home.
