Abigail Matheson’s rose is not only representative of those in the garden, beloved by Colin’s mother, but also the rose that is Mary herself. Thorns and all, Mary heals and maintains the garden, simultaneously healing herself along the way. Posing many roses before deciding on this final bloom, Abigail mimics Mary’s enduring personality.

With a strong mottled texture and warm base tone, we’ve sourced a Hahnemühle German Etching paper that creates a print with strong colors and deep blacks to give that rich, high in contrast feel. Since the pronounced texture of the paper enables it to hold more ink, this paper gives each print a handmade crafted feel.

Prints are shipped flat in a protective parchment sleeve in between two sheets of stiff cardboard to keep prints flat in transit. If the artwork is damaged in any way during shipping, please contact us right away with photographs documenting any such damages. We will seek to address the damage to customer satisfaction on a case by case basis.
