A Floral Fantasy in an Old English Garden

Walter Crane was an English artist and book illustrator. He is considered to be the most influential, and among the most prolific, children's book creators of his generation and, along with Randolph Caldecott and Kate Greenaway, one of the strongest contributors to the child's nursery motif that the genre of English children's illustrated literature would exhibit in its developmental stages in the later 19th century. This worrk contains: In an old world garden dreaming, Where the flowers had human names, Methought, in fantastic seeming, They disported as squires and dames.
