Flowers from Shakespeare Holly Walter Crane CC0968 Postcard

'Heigh-ho! sing heigh-ho! unto the green holly'! These words come from Shakespeare's play As you like it (Act 2, Scene 7: The forest) and refer to holly's life-giving power even in the harshness of winter. They also inspired Walter Crane to make this delightful watercolor painting of a 'holly man' (see Holly, Flowers from Shakespeare's Garden, c. 1906) Personalize the postcard simply by typing over the example texts.
