[Notas - Normas] Nota do Artista
Tet is the Vietnamese equivalent of Chinese New Year, usually held in January / February. (Depends on lunar cycles). These colorful flowers are on sale through-out Vietnam at markets, & purchased to decorate the home, much like a Christmas tree in the West.

Hi Chris,

When i see this photo and i remenber a Old portuguese legend (history) about roses It's calles "miracle of the roses" O milagre das Rosas.

Elizabeth, or Isabel, daughter of King Peter III of Aragon, was named after her great-aunt, Elizabeth of Hungary, but she is known in Portugal by the Spanish form of that name, Isabela. She was the wife of King Dinis of Portugal. She was canonized in 1625, although some records list 1626.

She is reputed to have founded charities and hospitals. In Portugal she is remembered for the miracle of the roses in which she was taking bread (or coins) to the poor only to be asked by her less than generous husband what she was carrying. The bread (or coins) was miraculously transformed into roses, thereby appeasing her spouse.

In art, Saint Elizabeth is depicted carrying roses in her lap in winter; crowned with roses; or as a Franciscan tertiary nun, sometimes with a beggar near her or with a rose or jug in her hand. She is easily confused with Saint Elizabeth of Hungary, who is also a queen and Franciscan tertiary. Elizabeth is venerated in Zaragoza and especially Portugal and is invoked in time of war.
