In Love, like Adam delved and Eve span, the allure transcends time. From an Advertisement for Hotel du Cap D Antibes to an Illustration by Arthur Rackham for A Dish of Apples, Eden Phillpotts' words in 1921 continue to captivate our imagination. Just as Hieronymus Bosch's The Garden of Earthly Delights mesmerized viewers with its oil on panel masterpiece from 1490-1500, so does a view Roc on the French Riviera transport us to paradise. As we stroll along the exterior of Femina in Berlin or witness the Countess of Warwick at her son's wedding, echoes of that fateful moment when Adam and Eve were driven out resonate within us. The Apple depicted by Kay Nielsen serves as a reminder of temptation and consequence, while the intertwined figures of Adam, Eve, and Serpent symbolize both desire and downfall. Even amidst Lemon Street in Truro, Cornwall during the early 1900s before 1910, traces can be found, and is a place where beauty intertwines with nature's bounty—a sanctuary that whispers tales untold. In this vast tapestry woven through artistry and history alike lies our yearning for an idyllic existence—an eternal longing for that lost paradise called Eden.
