Some images from The Defence of Guenevere, by William Morris, published originally by William Morris in 1904 at The Bodley Head Press, and illustrated by the Scottish artist Jessie M King (1875 – 1949).
I have a fac simile edition from The Scolar Press (1979). The copy has some unopened pages, but i think all of the ilustrations can be scanned, and in any case it is not a rare or high-priced book.
