A beautiful original late 1920s/early 1930s pen and ink drawing by Cardwell Higgins designed as greeting card art. The artist created a series of these noir black and white fantasy illustrative art deco pen & ink drawings in the period which evoke both late 19th century Romantic mysticism and futuristic science fiction. Nicely Framed under glass in an art deco aesthetic gallery frame – this is a stunning example from the early years of this illustrator’s prolific career.
