Crane's last outstanding book of illustrations for children was Flora's Feast (1889). He later worked with William Morris at the Kelmscott Press on wood-engravings for Morris's The Story of the Glittering Plain (1894) and for Spenser's 'The Faerie Queene' (1894-97); these Gothic images were among his finest works as an illustrator.
The picture shows Crane's illustration of Spenser's Faerie Queene. It represents Britomart, a nymph of Greek mythology and the heroine of Book III of The Faerie Queene.
