Hyacinthe et Rose by Martin Jarrie

This is what Martin Jarrie told us: "My father was a farmer and after that, a gardener. In his honor I painted fruits and vegetables and that was the origin of my book "A large kitchen like a garden". Then I wanted to pay homage to my mother. In the garden, my father had left some room for her to plant flowers; so I painted her flowers too. My dear fiend François Morel, a famous theater actor in France saw my paintings and wrote a text in which he mixed his memories with mine. This is how Hyacinthe and Rose was created; for many people of my generation they evoke their own parents and grandparents: Hyacinthe is communist and Rose is Catholic, but share their love for flowers.”
