Girl in Green Dress with a Parrot, ‘With Best Love’ Postcard

A curly-haired girl in a green velvet dress and gold sash reaches up to pick a pink rose, while a bright green parrot balances on her arm below — a late-Victorian chromolithograph postcard framed by a pink lattice border. Printed beneath the scene is the sentiment ‘With Best Love’ along with a short verse about flower-strewn days.

A gentle choice for anyone drawn to antique bird portraits, or for tucking a rhyme into a handwritten letter.
