_________________________________________________
Victoriana is the poetry of times past. Children run in the fields of wildflowers. The seasons' many colors have found their voice at last, with dedicated romance. From celebrated author and artist Emily Isaacson, we are given a breath of fresh air of all things Victoria in her work of art in three sections.
From flowers arranged, to gingham aprons, nostalgia rules this era. Victoriana by Isaacson is a revisiting of Victorian times, and their three tier influence on modern day relationships: decor, art, and thought. She is the creator of many quotable moments on the road to Victoria.
A Taste of Victoriana
Emily Quote . . .
I took up my favored pen,
and the meter of the salt roar,
the splendid gathering of stony shells
and aged driftwood
splashed off the pages
of the handmade paper, enameled
with rose blossoms and leaves,
for the retrieving of countries
almost lost
in the density of ocean,
for the salve of a wound time has marred.
