Quaint drawing of an old-fashioned bee hive in a garden. Surrounded by bees in flight, plants, gardening tools and even a mother hen and her chicks the bee hive in this copyright free insect drawing is free for downloading and adding to your next project.
The Illustrated London News published the Illustrated London Reading Book, 3rd ed. in 1851. I found this drawing and a number of others on Reusable Art from this very vintage source.
