Description
A striking vintage illustration by Norman Wilkinson from the 1911 Ballantyne Press first edition of Chaucer's *Romaunt of the Rose*. This tipped-in print of "The God of Love" carries over a century of character—subtle age marks and discoloration that speak to its provenance—while the image itself remains crisp and clear. It arrives with its original protective tissue and blind-stamped border, a genuine piece of early twentieth-century book art for collectors of classic literature and fine printing.
