Free Vintage Clip Art - 1850s Lady with Doves

I've been using this one on Etsy as a background for some jewelry that I posted, and I had two requests for this image today! This fabulous early engraving features a lovely young woman with several doves, standing in a formal garden. Such a romantic piece! This one comes from an amazing book that I picked up at auction a couple of months ago. It's actually from a ladies autograph book and it's filled with the most delightful handwritten poems and other wonderful engravings. Many of the written pieces are dated 1857! I brightened this one up a bit, but left the age spots intact for an authentically aged appearance.

If you have time, please check out my other blog www.backgroundfairy.com to see the wonderful new free background that I posted today. This new one features pink moss roses on a natural linen like background, it's quite rustique chic!



XXXOOO
