Ring-a-Ring o’ Roses

Wild Rabbits Dancing in Mid-Air

ECLIPSE Image Number 03100002

This wild circle of rabbits in pink dresses and pink ballet slippers are literally flying through the air with boughs of roses connecting their dance circle. Some of those roses break the intricately patterned border on the top and left side, and lilies of the valley grow into the image from the lower right of the image. The dancers have their heads thrown back against a clear sky and communicate the joyous spirit of spring.
