I’m not 100% sure what’s happening here; is the youth stealing the infant from the bird’s nest? Or rescuing her? What do you think?
The actual full-sized scan is much higher quality than this image suggests, scanned at 2400dpi 16bpp greyscale, 4,656x14,193 pixels.
Artist: Antonín Josef Lewý. Book dated 1884.

A decorated initial (or decorative initial) used as a drop cap in Circling The Year from 1870, in an article about Christmas.
Yes, it’s July; i generally do some Christmas images this month, first because it’s hot here in July and the snow i snice to work with, and second because people using stock images for XMAS projects often need a lot of lead time for channel distribution etc.
