Description:
Original 1925 vintage illustration titled “The Merry, Merry Maypole”, a joyful scene featuring anthropomorphic woodland animals and children dancing around a maypole in celebration of May Day. Dressed in colorful costumes, rabbits, mice, squirrels, and more hold on to the ribbons as a proud Mrs. Polly Parrot watches from the top, crowned as the May Queen. The artwork is a delightful representation of springtime festivity, with blooming trees and playful charm throughout.
Professionally mounted on black cardboard and measuring approximately 15 x 22 cm, this whimsical print is perfect for collectors of vintage children’s art, nursery prints, or animal-themed storybook illustrations.
