DESCRIPTION:This event is in-person at the Museum in the Headley Lecture T
 heatre and online via Zoom\nTickets are £8 each. Booking is essential\n\n
 With Martin Beek\, artist and art historian\n\nSince ancient times people 
 have used symbols to express thoughts and feelings. During the Victorian A
 ge\, they were most commonly conveyed through particular flowers\, fruits 
 and plants. Their ‘hidden’ messages often relate to Victorian conventi
 ons of romance and courtship.\n\nThe floral elements within narrative Vict
 orian paintings also reflect the period’s passion for gardens and beauty
  for its own sake. Among them are stories of romantic love\, faithfulness 
 and hope\, but also of infidelity and disappointment.
