EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving captures the innocence and wonder of childhood in the 19th century. Minnie, a young girl with a sweet smile, is depicted holding a delicate dandelion clock in her hand. The intricate details of the engraving bring to life every strand of Minnie's hair and every petal of the dandelion.
The image exudes a sense of nostalgia, transporting us back to a time when simple pleasures like blowing on dandelions were enough to spark joy. Minnie's pensive expression suggests that she is lost in thought, perhaps contemplating her dreams and aspirations as she gazes at the fluffy white seeds floating away.
The black and white composition adds to the timeless quality of this piece, emphasizing the classic beauty of Minnie with her dandelion clock. The fine lines and shading created by the engraver showcase their skill and attention to detail.
This print was originally featured in The Girl's Own Annual from 1892/93, making it not only a work of art but also a piece of history. It serves as a reminder that despite changing times, some things remain constant – like the innocence and curiosity found in children everywhere.
