Thinking about it, since it's #NationalPetDay let's share a few more Muriel Dawson illustrations.

Our Collection of the Week email today looks at the charming illustrations of #MurielDawson . Lots of spring themes and heart-warming nostalgia. Also check out her gorgeous sketchbook portfolio of drawings https://t.co/r7Witdp0Br

After receiving an enquiry about this lovely image, feel compelled to share "Valse Bleue" by Ferdinand von Reznicek from Der Tanz, 1908. Such swirling romance! #illustrationart #illustration

The marriage of Napoleon to his second wife, Marie-Louise, Archduchess of Austria took place #OTD in 1810. Marie-Louise Painting by Georges Rouet (1784-1869).

Today is #HippoDay. Hippos are dangerous as they can be unpredictable and aggressive, especially if you feed them a stale bun. Series from artist George Henry Thompson from 1904 in the Peter and Dawn Cope Collection @Mary_Evans

@thehistoryguy We have these fabulous trade cards for Virol - 'Give Health's Ruddy Glow'! Also, seems to have done the trick for dancer Serge Lifar - from Eve Magazine 3 August 1927 - Jazz Age Club Collection @Mary_Evans
