Critics Review

‘Each composition is paired with a famous work of art, as well as a short explanation of how the masterpiece inspired her design. It’s a telling conceit: For Lindsey, plants are her paints, and the garden, her canvas.’ Gardenista

‘The garden designer reinterprets famous works of art as expressive bouquets in her vibrant new tome.’ – Galerie

‘A dazzling new book.’ – The World of Interiors

‘[Taylor’s] keen aesthetic sensibility, garden wisdom and eloquent writing will all stay with you long after you finish the book.’ – 1stdibs Introspective

‘The floral and garden designer behind the Wall Street Journal column Flower School has collected 40 of her floral arrangements with the art that inspired them. And they’re all wonders.’ – The Associated Press

‘Required reading.’ – Gardenista

‘Readable and remarkably instructive … It is also art in its own right with full-page images of the artworks and the arrangements … Lindsey Taylor writes so beautifully that her text complements the art, the flowers, and the spectacular photography. Even those who suffer from fear of flower arranging will want the book. Holiday gift giving solved!’ – Garden Club of America’s The Bulletin

‘A veritable garden of inspiration.’ – Vanity Fair

‘This beautiful book by Lindsey Taylor evokes an amazing sensibility to see profound possibilities in flowers – possibilities that so many of the world’s great artists have seen and displayed on canvas and through sculpture over the ages. Art in Flower is a work of art in itself.’ – Martha Stewart, Founder, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia

‘Lindsey Taylor is a gifted gardener with exquisite taste. Art in Flower brings together her many talents and is as engaging as it is inspiring.’ – Glenn D. Lowry Director, The Museum of Modern Art
