About this work

A black-and-white illustration shows two elf-like figures in wide-brimmed hats holding painter's palettes and brushes, one standing atop a large leaf and the other reclining, surrounded by grapevines, fruit, and flowers against a full moon and starry sky. The image is framed by decorative vine borders and is accompanied by a caption quoting the question of where the elves obtain the colour to paint flowers, fruits and foliage. It is a 1920 print by Dugald Stewart Walker.
