Ready (1888)

This charming vintage print features "Ready" by Allen & Ginter, showcasing a beautifully illustrated young girl from the late 19th century. The artwork captures her in profile, with delicate attention to detail. She is adorned in a classic white sailor-style dress with vibrant blue trim and red ribbon bows at the chest and sleeves. Her attire is complemented by a striking yellow sun hat adorned with an elaborate cluster of bright orange-red roses. Her brown hair peeks out from under the hat, and she holds a small object in her right hand, which is partly visible.The background is a simple off-white, allowing the vivid colors of her outfit to stand out prominently. The word "READY" is inscribed at the top-right corner in elegant black script, while the bottom left corner displays the artist’s name, "Allen & Ginter," and the text "ALLEN & GINTERS RICHMOND VIRGINIA." This print exudes a nostalgic charm, evoking the elegance of early American illustration. Perfect for adding a touch of vintage flair to any room or collection.
