EDITORS COMMENTS
Old Woman, Old Woman (colour litho) captures the essence of a hauntingly beautiful nursery rhyme brought to life in stunning detail. This 19th-century English School print, part of a private collection, showcases the talent and artistry of the era. The image portrays an elderly woman flying on a broomstick, wearing a traditional hat that adds to her mysterious allure. The scene evokes childhood memories and transports us back to a time when nursery rhymes were cherished bedtime stories. The Victorian-era setting lends an air of both fascination and fear as we encounter this bewitching figure. With her crutch in hand, she embodies the archetype of witches from folklore and fairy tales. This illustration originally appeared in Aunt Louisas London Picture Book published by Frederick Warne in 1866. Printed by Kronheim, it exemplifies the high-quality craftsmanship prevalent during this period. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of its cultural significance not only within British society but also across Europe. The enduring popularity of nursery rhymes transcends borders and generations. Bridgeman Images has preserved this timeless piece for all to appreciate. It serves as a testament to our shared heritage and reminds us that even centuries-old illustrations can still captivate our imaginations.
