Featuring the pensive The Soul of the Rose by John William Waterhouse, this hardcover journal brings contemplative lyricism of literary and romantic art into your daily writing endeavours. Painted in 1908, this work draws inspiration from Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s 1855 Victorian poem "Maud," specifically the evocative line, "And the soul of the rose went into my blood." The narrative centres on a woman lost in a solitary moment of intense longing and quiet reflection within a walled sanctuary.

She leans her head gently against a warm brick wall, closing her eyes as she inhales the rich fragrance of a pink rose. Waterhouse captures the profound depth of human emotion connected to nature, transforming the simple act of smelling a flower into a physical manifestation of memory, desire, and internal narrative.

Earthy terracotta tones, soft blush pinks, and deep teal foliage infuse the cover with an introspective sense of depth, evoking the atmosphere of olfactory memory and poetic melancholy. Setting a richly immersive tone for your writing, lifestyle journalling, and creative reflection, this piece is designed for both everyday use and decorative display.

Pair it with other pieces in the Pre-Raphaelite Collection for a curated aesthetic.
