EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical lithograph titled "See Saw Margery Daw. . " captures the essence of a beloved nursery rhyme. Created by an English artist in the 19th century, this print is a delightful addition to any collection. The image depicts Margery Daw on a see-saw with her bed, surrounded by various elements from the story. The bright colors and intricate details bring this classic tale to life, inviting viewers into a world of childhood imagination. Illustrated for the book "Ridicula Rediviva" by J E Rogers, published in 1876, this artwork showcases the enduring popularity of nursery rhymes throughout history. It reminds us of the power these simple verses have to captivate young minds and transport them to magical realms. The scene portrays Margery Daw lying on straw bedding, emphasizing her humble origins. This contrasts with her playful nature as she balances precariously on the see-saw. The inclusion of dirt and references to being dirty or slutty adds an intriguing layer of complexity to this seemingly innocent rhyme. With its rich cultural heritage rooted in Germany's folklore tradition, this illustration also reflects Germanic influences seen across Northern Europe. Its portrayal of furniture and home furnishings provides insight into domestic life during that era. Whether you are drawn to its artistic beauty or nostalgic charm, this lithograph offers a glimpse into the enchanting world of children's poetry while celebrating European culture through artistry and storytelling.
