The Spotted Mimulus from King Longbeard
A small winged figure emerges among broad flowers, patterned leaves and long diagonal strands. A richly worked border encloses the design above its bold printed title. White’s survey identifies the image as Robinson’s illustration from King Longbeard, published by John Lane in 1897.
