"The Widow's Son"

When he had walked a day or so, a strange man met him.

"Whither way?" asked the man.

Illustration by Kay Nielsen

 

 

This illustration bears close similarities to one produced in East of the Sun and West of the Moon (1914) - in this case, the

illustration associated with the following text from 'The Widow's Son':

When he had walked a day or so, a strange man met him. "Whither way?" asked the man.

Difference in detail and colour, however, indicate that the illustration may be an advanced variant upon which the final

published image was based.

of the cards blank so that you may write your own personal message.
