Drawing of plant with red flower

Nelson, Arthur W., 1880-1958 · [1890–1899]

A drawing of a potted plant with a large red flower in a window with a pink valence is one of several done on the back of advertisements for Ayer's Pills, a cure for bilious disorders sold by Farr and Tandy of Goshen, New Hampshire, where the Nelson brothers lived. The drawing is unsigned but is very similar to another signed by Arthur Nelson and it has been inferred that Arthur drew this one as well.
