Irises

Perhaps you are looking for a central theme for your wall decor that is not just beautiful in appearance, but also has deeper meaning and context. Combine Photowall's irises posters wRead moreith a cultural background and you will have a focal point everyone is talking about. In Greek mythology, Iris is the goddess of the rainbow. This is a fitting literary connection for the iris, a flower whose members can appear in all different colours of the rainbow, from the classic purples and blues to red, orange, pink and yellow. The multicoloured options in irises posters will stretch across your walls with petals that are made from gown-like material. Thick and velvety, with ruffles around the opening of the blossom, these flowers are the ideal subject for any type of space. With about 300 different species, the iris is one of the most visually striking plants, as you will see in irises posters. The most iconic is the tall bearded iris, so highly prized that the French monarchy grabbed it early on as part of their own branding and called it the fleur-de-lis. Bring royalty to your own space by decorating it with irises posters by Photowall.

Symbolism in irises posters

As you have read, this flower is often associated with royalty and it is no wonder. This regal flower puts on quite a show in the garden where its stately blooms range in colour from traditional shades of purple and blue to yellow, white, pink, red, chartreuse, brown and nearly black. In short, there is an iris to fit any occasion, just like irises posters. Even though the iris means different things to different people and cultures, some of its most common connotations are the aforementioned royalty, faith, wisdom, hope and valor. All of these traits can be transmitted through our irises posters as well. Faith and wisdom would be very welcome in any type of space, but especially in a home or residence. Imagine an irises poster like "Iris Field" in the living room, for example. Not only will it lend a touch of nature, but also make the area seem bigger and thus more welcoming to your family and friends. Irises posters can really inspire and motivate when placed in the right location.

Great stimulus

Due to its beauty, it really is no surprise that the iris has encouraged so many prominent figures from the world of art. In 1889, Van Gogh entered Saint-Paulde-Mausole, an asylum at Saint-Remy, originally a 12th-century Augustinian monastery, some twenty kilometers north of Aries. To Van Gogh, Saint-Paul-de-Mausole was an asylum, monastery and studio all in one, which was why he so gladly opted for the isolation. Irises are perhaps the first subject he did in the asylum, which is why we have featured him as well in irises posters. These irises posters by Van Gogh show no evident trace of the moodiness and high tension that appear in many of his later works. He painted the flowers with admiration and joy, as you can see in irises posters like "Irises, Vincent van Gogh".

The different types in irises posters

Even though Iris flowers have 260 to 300 species that vary in forms, shapes, sizes and colors, it is perhaps the Bearded Iris and Siberian Iris that are the most commonly known. Nonetheless, irises posters feature quite a lot of this flower. The so-called Blue Magic is one of them, with its deep purple and bright yellow blotches on its falls, as you can see in the irises poster "Iris". The Casablanca is another charming kind of iris, with pure white flowers and yellow-gold markings on its falls. No matter which types of this flower you choose, these irises posters really bring a touch of elegance into your interiors.
