Large original handwritten and painted image with Rudyard Kipling's poem'IF' first published in 1910. Given the age of the frame and the style, it was likely created by Margaret Sargent. Shortly after its publication, little is known about Margaret Sargent. She was likely a school kid and this was made as calligraphy for a school award. Some yellowing of the parchment and some bumps and loss of detail on the frame as seen in the clear pictures show up very well and are a great original antique piece.
