Watson, Alice Helena (Scottish, 1896-1984). The Child and the Piper. Circa 1930. Lovely watercolor mounted on title card, depicting image from a childrenês fairie tale, likely published by the Waverly Book Publishing Co. in the 1930s. The image is characteristic of this renowned illustrator, with the linear style she and her husband are known for. The watercolor is mounted on a card measuring 13 x 10 inches and is signed at bottom right –A. H. Watson.” Very good.
