This is a charming set of two vintage framed prints by illustrator E. Martin. The works capture a whimsical, mid-century folk art aesthetic, depicting children in what appears to be traditional Dutch or German attire. One print shows a boy and girl walking together, while the other features a boy carrying a large basket overflowing with colorful flowers. The bright color palette and cheerful subject matter are characteristic of popular decorative art from the 1950s-1970s.


• Illustrations are rendered in a style reminiscent of classic children's book art.
• Each print is on paper with a decorative deckled edge, floated on a mint green border.
• Housed in their original vintage painted wood frames with hanging hardware on the back.
• Each frame measures approximately 9.75" H x 7.75" W.


Condition: Good vintage condition. The prints remain bright with minimal age toning. The matting shows some light, even discoloration. The original painted wood frames have scuffs, scratches, and minor paint loss consistent with their age, particularly at the corners. Backing paper shows wear and tearing.
