Printable Vintage Fashion Illustration for Altered Art, Graphic Design, Papercrafts or Scrapbooking: Edwardian Mother and Child at Christening, 1904

Sometimes when you pick up your child
you can feel the map of your own bones beneath your hands,
or smell the scent of your skin in the nape of his neck.
This is the most extraordinary thing about motherhood -
finding a piece of yourself separate and apart
that all the same you could not live without.
― Jodi Picoult, Perfect Match

Vintage Natural History Illustration: Yellow Canary (Crithagra flaviventris)

The caged bird sings with a fearful trill,
of things unknown, but longed for still,
and his tune is heard on the distant hill,
for the caged bird sings of freedom.
― Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings

I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Now that she had nothing to lose, she was free.
― Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes
