Walter Crane (1845-1915) was an English artist and book illustrator. He is considered one of the most influential children's book creators of his generation, alongside Randolph Caldecott and Kate Greenaway. Crane was a proponent of the Arts and Crafts movement, advocating for beautiful design accessible to all social classes. His work often featured stylised figures, flat compositions, and decorative borders. He drew inspiration from a variety of sources, including classical mythology, medieval art, and Japanese prints. 'Miss America' depicts a woman in indigenous-inspired attire, standing against a backdrop of blue water and foliage. The figure is adorned with a feathered headdress and a leopard-print garment. She holds a bow and arrow, and is surrounded by seashells. The image is framed by an ornamental border. The text below the figure reads: 'Fancy Free, Columbia Wild / Of Nature and of Time the Child, / By Oceans Undiscovered Blue / Curtained Close, / Where No Man Knew, / Ages Long / Unconscious Played, / A Brown and / Fearless Indian Maid.' The text above the figure reads: 'Miss America / As La Belle Sauvage Fancy-Free'.

So pleased with my print and the frame it’s housed in. Fantastic quality and really adds character to the room. Communication was great and it was delivered quicker than estimated. Overall I’m extremely pleased and will recommend to friends. I’m already eying up my next purchase!
Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
