This listing features a vintage unposted postcard titled "The Garden of Eden" by British artist E. Box (pseudonym of Eden Fleming). The colorful artwork depicts a paradise scene with angels, animals, and lush vegetation in a highly stylized, folk-art manner.

E. Box (Eden Fleming, 1919-1988) was a British artist who adopted this pseudonym when she first exhibited her work at the Hanover Gallery in London in 1949. Her work is characterized by highly colored, stylized animals and figures, often with Christian significance, in exotic landscapes. Art critics have noted the influence of Persian and Indian miniature painting in her work, as well as similarities to icons and the paintings of Douanier Rousseau.

The artwork portrays a vibrant interpretation of the Garden of Eden, featuring two angels hovering above trees bearing red fruits, with various animals peacefully gathered below including a leopard, deer, lion, and other creatures. A central path with a gate leads to a bright, feather-like element, creating a symmetrical and symbolic composition.

Published by The Pallas Gallery Ltd., London, W.1. as part of their art postcard series (Pallas Postcard 1184). The card notes that it's from the "Collection of Dr. Marston Fleming, London" and is printed in England. The postcard dates approximately from the mid-20th century.
