This illustration by Walter Crane depicts classical figures in a natural setting, with an angel blowing a horn to create a gust of wind. The soft colour palette and balanced composition create a harmonious image.
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 classes. His work often incorporated elements of mythology, folklore, and historical romance. He also created political cartoons for socialist causes. 'The Wind: God Sent a Gust from the South' depicts a scene with classical figures in a natural setting. An angel with large wings blows a long horn, creating a gust of wind. Two figures on the ground react to the wind's force. One figure, dressed in a white tunic and red boots, leans forward to assist another figure who is lying prone on the grass. The colour palette is soft, with blues, greens, and touches of red. The composition is carefully arranged, with the figures and landscape elements balanced to create a harmonious image.

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.
