EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorful lithograph captures the essence of a beloved nursery rhyme, "Pretty maid Pretty maid. . . ". Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection. The illustration originally appeared in the book "Nursery Rhymes, Ridicula Rediviva" by J. E. Rogers, published by Macmillan in 1876. The image depicts a gathering of children eagerly listening to a story being told by their pretty maid. With wide-eyed wonder and anticipation, they hang on every word as she spins tales filled with adventure and imagination. The big shoe beside her serves as both her throne and stage for these captivating stories. The nursery rhyme verse accompanying this illustration speaks of a diamond posie given to the queen by the pretty maid. It evokes images of royalty and enchantment that captivate young minds. Originating from Germany, nursery rhymes have been cherished across Europe for generations. This particular rhyme showcases German culture and its rich tradition of storytelling for children. As we gaze upon this delightful scene captured through vibrant colors and intricate details, we are reminded of the power that stories hold in shaping young minds. This print is not only an artistic masterpiece but also a testament to the enduring magic found within nursery rhymes throughout history.
