Rear of Greeting Card

(with envelope)

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 William Russell Flint, 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. Each of our Fine Art

Posters is prepared with archival quality papers and inks - and also accompanied by information about William Russell Flint, this suite and

the profiled illustration.

An example of one of our Fine Art Posters

in a superb 12x18" format

My heart is rent for wise Odysseus, the

hapless one, who far from his friends

this long while suffereth affliction in a

seagirt Isle

Now when the wooers had put from them the desire

of meat and drink they minded them of other things,

even of the song and dance: for these are the crown

of the feast

Then in amaze she went back to her

chamber, for she laid up the wise

saying of her son in her heart

Helen came forth from her fragrant vaulted chamber,

like Artemis of the golden arrows

It was the fourth day when he had accomplished all.

And lo, on the fifth, the fair Calypso sent him on his

way from the island

And the daughter of Alcinous alone stood firm, for

Athene gave her courage of heart, and took all

trembling from her limbs

Circe meanwhile had gone her way and made

fast a ram and a black ewe by the dark ship

So spake she, but I drew my sharp sword

from my thigh and sprang upon Circe, as

one eager to slay her

And lo, the women came up, for the high goddess

Persephone sent them forth, all they that had been

the wives and daughters of mighty men

Now all the rest, as many as fled from sheer destruction,

were at home, and had escaped both war and sea, but

Odysseus only, craving for his wife and for his homeward

path, the lady nymph Calypso held, that fair goddess, in

her hollow caves, longing to have him for her lord

Therewith the goddess plunged into

a shadowy cave

And Helen came up, beautiful Helen, with the

robe in her hands and spake and hailed him

All her joints were loosened as she lay

in the chair, and the fair goddess the

while was giving her gifts immortal

By help of the handmaids, shameless things and

reckless, the wooers came and trapped me, and

chid me loudly

The joy and anguish came on her in one moment,

and both her eyes filled up with tears, and the

voice of her utterance was stayed

Then down from heaven came Athena

and drew nigh him, fashioned in the

likeness of a woman

She set forth to go to the hall to the

company of the proud wooers, with

the back-bent bow in her hands, and

the quiver for the arrows

The Killing of the Wooers

So he spake, and at once her knees were

loosened, and her heart melted within

her, as she knew the same tokens that

Odysseus showed her
