SEATTLE, WA (PRWEB) February 21, 2017
New book from widely published floral and travel photographer provides an in-depth view of a different side of one of world's most beautiful and romantic cities: not food; not romance; not architecture; but flowers and floral decor. From elegant floral boutiques to lively flower markets and expansive public gardens, flowers are an essential part of Parisian life and a key motif in Parisian style and decor. The book's lavish photos along with its practical information will add a new dimension to anyone's visit to Paris, and open the eyes of many who are already familiar with the city.
In Paris in Bloom ($19.95 Abrams Image, March 2017) author and photographer Georgianna Lane portrays in over 220 stunning full-color photos Paris's flowers, blossoms, blooming trees, flower shops, market stalls, bouquets, flower boxes, elegant private and public displays and arrangements juxtaposed with the wealth of floral motif architectural and decor detail which these flowers have inspired over the centuries.
