To give someone a rose is to rely on a 3,000-year tradition to say what you won’t.

In antiquity, it belonged to gods and heros. Christianity repurposed it for purity and martyrdom. Dutch renaissance painters set petals beside skulls to meditate on death; England fought a civil war and named it after roses. By the Victorian era, it had become an emotional minefield: red for love, yellow for jealousy, white for innocence. Modern artists tried to strip it of meaning, abstracting it and ironizing it.

Roses as a symbol are overused, overdetermined, and yet stubbornly effective. 🥀

1. Alma-Tadema, The Roses of Heliogabalus (1888)

2. Martin Schongauer, Madonna of the Rose Bower (1473)

3. Jan Davidsz de Heem, A Vanitas Still Life with a Skull, a Book and Roses (1630)

4. Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun, Marie Antoinette with a Rose (1783)

5. John William Waterhouse, The Soul of the Rose (1903)

6. Georgia O’Keeffe, Flower of Life II (c. 1919)

🖼️ Bacchus (c. 1598) by Caravaggio, Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence.

Ripples disturb the wine’s surface, as though the glass has just been set down, while infrared reflectography revealed a tiny self-portrait hidden in the carafe - a young Caravaggio with dark curly hair, holding a paintbrush at his easel, quietly inserting himself into the scene.

Thomas Cole captures the entire arc of human existence in 4 epic river scenes. We help you decode it all.

From childhood bliss to midlife chaos, each landscape mirrors the state of the soul.

See this 19th-century masterpiece at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
