This hand-painted wraparound was my first book cover photograph. I bought the antique Art Nouveau Lace coverlet in Paris in 1987, just after completing the re-creation of The Picayune's Creole Cook Book. The model, Trisha Webster/Wilhemina, is holding a rhubrum or stargazer lily.
A variation of the hand-painted image is available here. Archival prints are also available of this image.
