EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Children catching butterflies" takes us back to the enchanting world of childhood innocence and wonder. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a timeless scene that continues to resonate with viewers today. The image depicts a group of children immersed in the joyous pursuit of catching butterflies. Set against a backdrop of lush green pastures and towering trees, their excitement is palpable as they eagerly chase after these delicate creatures. The vibrant colours bring life to the scene, highlighting both the beauty of nature and the exuberance of youth. This illustration originally appeared in "Bebe Devient Savant" (Baby Becomes Wise), a book written by Madame Doudet (Theodore Lefevre) in Paris around 1875. It showcases not only the charm of childhood but also promotes scientific exploration through its depiction of botany and natural history. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a simpler time when summers were filled with adventure and discovery. The forest serves as their playground, offering endless possibilities for exploration and imagination. This print reminds us to cherish our own memories from childhood while inspiring us to nurture curiosity and appreciation for nature in future generations. Owned by a private collector, this exquisite piece is part of Bridgeman Images' extensive collection available through Fine Art Finder. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke nostalgia while celebrating the universal joys found within every child's heart.
