This serene picture captures the delicate beauty of a Magnolia Soulangeana in full bloom, amid the rustic charm of a parsonage garden.
The soft, pink blossoms contrast beautifully with the white walls and red door of the rectory, creating an idyllic scene.
The blooming magnolia is the centrepiece of the garden, surrounded by a carpet of blue flowers and the green hues of spring.
This print is ideal for nature lovers, garden enthusiasts and anyone looking for a soothing, rural atmosphere.
The trunk of an old Magnolia soulangeana, as shown in the picture, is a striking and characteristic element that tells a lot about the age and history of the place and the tree.
The old magnolia, with its drawn trunk, was a symbol of the time that passed, but also of the beauty that endured. It was a silent witness of the generations that had lived in the rectory, of the children who had played in the garden, of the lovers who had met under its branches.
