Almanacco per il 1887 – Titolo
1887
Kate Greenaway’s charming title page for her 1887 Almanack perfectly captures the whimsical, nostalgic world she created for Victorian children. Two elegantly dressed women in matching empire-waist green gowns hold a drooping garland of flowers, while three mischievous cherubs flutter above them. Greenaway was so influential that her signature style actually sparked a massive fashion trend, with mothers everywhere dressing their little girls in the exact same bonnets and high-waisted dresses seen here. Published by George Routledge & Sons, this delightful print showcases why she remains one of the most beloved illustrators of the Golden Age of Illustration.
