Title
Illustrated title page for "A Lover's Quarrel", in 'Last "Graphic" Pictures' by Randolph Caldecott
Description
A young man and a young woman hold hands as they walk through the countryside. Behind them to our left, the title for the story has been made out of branches that have been turned into letters - that are also branches for the hedgerow.
The "Q" is also a hole in the undergrowth that a rabbit (or hare) has run into. A dog runs beside them.

Handwritten text on the bottom left of the image reads,
"It was a very beautiful evening - "
