When presented on Greeting Cards, these images are prepared as tipped-on plates - in hommage to the hand-crafted

approach typical of prestige illustrated publications produced in the early decades of the 20th Century. Each card is

hand-finished and the images are presented on Ivory card stock with an accompanying envelope. The rear of each

card carries information about Edmund Dulac, this wonderful suite and the profiled illustration - we have left the interior

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

 

Should you wish to order a Reproduction Print of one or more of these images, we have provided some options below.

Of course, should you wish to discuss some customised options, we welcome your contact on any matter through

ThePeople@SpiritoftheAges.com.

 

In the meantime, enjoy perusing these wonderful images from Edmund Dulac.

 

 

The colour illustrations

 

   

The man had his arm lightly laid across the

tall girl's shoulders; they might have been

lovers, so tender was his touch

The light she had thought to extinguish had

escaped from her dying hands and floated

always farther across the desert, shedding its

marvelous radiance over rock and stone
