"The Miser and his Gold" and "The Golden Eggs" are two illustrations by Walter Crane from his book "The Baby's Opera" published in 1908. The illustrations are simple but effective, depicting two morals, one about the dangers of greed and the other about the shortsightedness of immediate gratification. The black and white illustrations are framed by circular borders decorated with stylized gold coins in the first illustration, and stylized gold eggs in the second.
