Surrounded by beautiful flowers and the aromas of Chinese tea, you will immerse yourself in the history of floral symbolism and explore the mysterious language of plants through works of art and classical literature. How can you use flowers to declare unrequited love, demonstrate hatred and disgust, or confess to a burning passion? The secret means of communication comes in the form of the Victorian language of flowers. According to this, different plants are endowed with specific symbols that are reflected in painting, literature, and religion. Art historian Asya Zanenina and tea master Kirill Baglai will conduct an atmospheric tea ceremony dedicated to the symbolism of flowers and plants from different eras and countries. You will taste three types of Chinese tea that reflect the theme of the event, learn to understand the hidden meanings of floral motifs in works of art, and "speak" the language of flowers.
