Wilde, Jennie (Virginia Wilkinson)
Biographical notes:
Jennie Wilde (1865-1913) was an artist who designed floats for many New Orleans Mardi Gras parades, including the Mistick Krewe of Comus and the Knights of Momus. The theme of the 1910 Comus parade was the Prophet Mahomet (Muhummad) and related subjects. These images are believed to be tracings from earlier original designs, possibly as a presentation copy to Comus captain, S. P. Walmsley.
