Photo of Historic irises w/ long, drooping falls?

I have been told that this is Iris germanica (Linn 1753), a classical neglecta that is a natural collected hybrid from Europe where it is widespread. It is highly scented but blooms early May, too early in my zone 4 to beat late frost and snow. I have no idea where I got it from and could only get a photo of it by protecting it against frost.
