These lovely young ladies making music among the blossoming trees convey a timeless message of peace and friendship! Florence Harrison drew them for the 1923 edition of Blackie's Girls' Annual, a hardcover book series published by Blackie and Son. Featuring illustrations and stories appealing to young women, this image appropriately appears on the frontispiece with the caption "Spring Comes Again." See this image as an art print!

Florence Harrison (1877-1955), an English-Australian artist, left an indelible impression on the world of illustration with her captivating and fantastical artwork for children. Combining Pre-Raphaelite influences with the techniques of fin-de-siècle (turn of the century) poster artists, she crafted a unique style that was indeed her own. Her Golden Age illustrations encompassed a wide range, from bringing her poetry for children to life to adorning the pages of Romantic literary works by renowned authors such as Christina Rossetti, William Morris, and Sir Alfred Tennyson. Among her remarkable creations, the 1912 book Elfin Song is one of her most celebrated works.
