The Queen and magical bird vintage illustration Postcard

“I have had a terrible dream!” she declared. “I dreamed that my little Rosanie had changed into a bouquet of roses; and while I held it, gazing at the flowers and caressing them, a pretty bird swooped down, snatched it from my hands and flew away with it . . . Run at once, she besought, “and see that nothing has happened to the Princess!” is an enchanting illustration of the Queen’s dream (or a nightmare) about her infant princess. More plot twists and action unfolds in the fairytale “Rosanie or The Inconstant Prince” from the book “In Powder and Crinoline,” Fairy Tales Retold by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch and illustrated by Kay Nielsen (1913). To find out more, read the story and stay enchanted! To honour the authenticity of the book, the original caption from the fairytale is found on the back of the postcard.
