| During XVIIIth and XIXth centuries, due to the strict Victorian moral codes, any type of communication, verbal or written, relating to emotions and feelings was not only frowned upon, but prohibited. Therefore, arose the necessity between lovers to communicate their messages of love, passion, admiration or delirium through other means. Flowers were chosen, and among them, roses specifically. That is why the language of roses apeared, designed so that the people could express their feelings in a subtle and discreet way. |
