From the most adorable Walter Crane book “The Baby’s Bouquet – A fresh bunch of old rhymes and tunes” I created this seamless tile with cherubs:
Here is what the original endpaper looks like:
I used the seamless tile to make some pretty printable papers:
I also tested the tile in two other sizes, if you have photoshop or other image editing tools, you can experiment as you please with the tile, in different sizes and colors:
Click on the above images to download your favorite cherub papers and mix and match as you please 😀
Here are a few of the stunning pictures from the book, it is well worth checking out:
Some of the bookpages would look adorable framed for a nursery, me thinks 😀 Remember my tutorial found HERE if you want to download the bookpages in the best possible resolution 😉
My tile and papers are free for your personal use and enjoyment!
Reblogged this on Bygone Theatre and commented:
Love this! There is some stunning artwork in turn-of-the-century books. We should post some images from some from our connection!
I love turn-of-the-century books! Print was well enough developed that the art is well preserved, and photo was not well enough developed to take over for drawings and paintings! I’m always a bit sad when opening a 1915-1920-book, and it’s filled with “poor” b&w photography 😛
