A Good Year - apple-picker on a ladder from vintage illustration, Art Nouveau style

---

A man in working-class workman's clothing stands on a ladder holding a basket; he is picking fruit from a tree trained to grow along the wall of a cottage with shutters beside the windows. A full basket sits at his booted feet. This engraving is after a picture by Reinhold Max Eichler (1872-1947) and was published in Jugend Magazine in Germany in 1903 as an example of the Art Nouveau style.
