I was delighted to acquire these two original illustrations by someone called Lorna Thompson. Clearly they are for a book telling Celtic myths and legends but I can find no record of such a book nor of any of Ms Thompson's work on other titles: which seems odd seeing as just from the evidence of these two alone, she was clearly a talented illustrator at a professional standard. Perhaps she married and changed her name. The two images are actually on the same sheet of parchment paper but were two large to scan together.
