Date 1937
Description Gilding the Lily by Dennis Mallet
Details

Gilding the Lily or True Patriotism at 'The Nook'. An extremely patriotic and houseproud family go to extreme trouble to express their patriotism by individually painting all the yellow tulips in their front garden blue to make their borders a symphony of red, white and blue. Union Jack flags fly out of the front window and a superb royal crest with international flags combined sits on the front wall.
