Dragon decorative gold leaf mediaeval CC0891 Postcard
Postcard inspired by an eye-catching dragon from a mediaeval bestiary.
Mediaeval bestiaries presented stories about all kind of creatures, some well-known and others only heard of. The images were often very decorative and lavishly illuminated in gold.
The dragon was seen as the most powerful of God's creatures, it could even battle an elephant to death. Its most dangerous weapon was the tail. It was thought to to lurk in hiding and then strangle its victims with the tail. This dragon seems to scream as it prepares to attack its prey.
The bestiaries also imparted with some moral lessons. The dragon is likened to the devil, it was just as dangerous and deceitful!
If you would like to find the original image, look for: A dragon. Franco-Flemish manuscript, circa 1270.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for.
I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording.
Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
