Elevate your style and ecological awareness with our stunning botanical Tote Bag, adorned with magnificent illustrations by Pierre-Antoine Poiteau.
This versatile bag features on one side a captivating motif depicting a hibiscus accompanied by the inspiring quote "Seeds, not bullets". This phrase echoes a moment of historical tension: during Poiteau's departure for Saint-Domingue in 1796, Commissioner Sonthonax violently opposed his scientific mission. The latter disdainfully declared that if the botanist carried "powder and bullets," he would gladly help him, but he refused to support an expedition dedicated to plants. By choosing seeds over weapons, Poiteau affirmed the primacy of knowledge and life over war.
The other side is adorned with the elegant Princess Apple accompanied by the phrase "Botanical spirit, poetic heart". This quote pays homage to the hidden sensitivity of this great scholar, whose manuscript poem was found after his death hidden behind his portrait. In it, Poiteau revealed his ability to see beyond science, associating each flower with a human emotion: love in myrtle, peace in the olive tree, or even "a woman in a rose".
