Description: You'd have to buy this copy simply for the illustrations–they represent Walter Crane at his very best; 37 of the original 40 are present, and all are very clean with beautiful color. The lithographs are printed on heavy paper, and would frame nicely. Flora's Feast: A Masque of Flowers. It was written and Illustrated by Walter Crane; it is dated 1892. Its medium is lithograph on paper.One of Crane’s most well-received books, Flora’s Feast tells the story of goddess Flora waking all the flowers in a garden for their blooming, to form a great ceremonial spring procession. It was the first of a series of books by Crane that featured flowers imitating human activities. The designer’s playful depiction of nature contrasted with the highly technical language of illustrations for the period’s scientific texts on botany but nurtured the same enthusiasm for the natural world.
