Description |
English: Two major motifs, the larger of which appears on the cover as well as on the box. A lady in flowing white robes of about 1815, seated on a bench beneath a tree, reaches towards a young man who advances proferring a bouquet. The smaller motif, above and below, is a basket of flowers. The paper is pasted on sideways on the box. The ground has small sprigs and dots. The paper is bordered by a vertical twining leaf and chevron design. It appears to be composed of small sheets. |
