Novelty print

[sMarie]

Anyone know what this lanz 1950s novelty print is depicting?

It seems a little too specific to be a random print.

I saw another 1950s lanz dress with a red riding hood theme, so I am thinking this may be based on a fairy tale / folk tale?

Mary Mary how does your garden grow? was my first thought, but I can't actually make out all the images, can you post a closer close up of the print flat please? I can sort of see a woman watering some plants, and standing next to a tree.

edit: now I can see a kneeling prince so maybe not...the woman also appears to be slouched/asleep on her chair in front of him which is odd, sleeping beauty is normally on a bed lol

Cinderella? if she trying on a shoe...and hanging washing on the tree? I don't know why there are floating clothes next to it!

Yes, Cinderella occurred to me too and until I realized she's passed out...lol.

It looks like he is bowing and they are both wearing crowns.

Hmm, maybe she is hanging clothes.

I hope this picture is a little clearer. I don't have any super close ups at the moment.

I get a bit of that "Pennsylvania Dutch" feeling as well.
