Mermaids Vintage Victorian Illustration Postcard
Vintage Mermaids Swimming in Waves
A very old antique illustration of Victorian mermaids swimming in the waves with a young mermaid swimming alongside. The mer-baby seems to be quite a little fish! The mermaid style is quite Art Nouveau, which is French for New Art, popular between 1890 to 1910. Art Nouveau typically portrayed beautiful women with long hair, and inspired by natural forms such as plants and curved lines.
About Vintage Mermaid Illustration
We found this wonderful vintage mermaid illustration in an old picture book from 1896. The image was done in black and white - pen and ink, and was colourized. The image is typical of the era -- the Victorian people loved fantasy creatures, and mermaids were very interesting to them. They wrote quite a lot about mermaids and merbabies in their fantasy genre.

Bought 10 Shakespeare quotes postcards and have framed them individually and placed them around the house Love them, some are funny and some are deep and meaningful! Lovely background on some, excellent printed words. A couple of plain white cards with black print - very stricking

My order was probably an awkward one! I asked for a range of different fine-art prints, in postcard size. It was all freshly printed, delivered quickly and at a very reasonable price. Best quality matt finish I've seen on a fine-art print.
