EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Mawnin says Brer Rabbit" showcases the artistic brilliance of Harry Rountree, a renowned artist from the early 20th century. This colourful lithograph depicts Brer Rabbit, an iconic character derived from African American folktales in the Southern United States. In this lively scene, we find Brer Rabbit on a street corner, puffing away at his pipe with a mischievous glint in his eye. The anthropomorphic rabbit is cleverly hiding behind a tar baby, showcasing his cunning nature and quick thinking abilities. As he stands outdoors on the road, one can't help but wonder what trap or adventure awaits him next. This children's illustration transports us into the enchanting world of Brer Rabbit's tales. With its vibrant colours and whimsical details, it captures the imagination of both young and old alike. The image evokes nostalgia for those familiar with these beloved stories while also inviting newcomers to discover their magic. As we admire Rountree's skillful brushwork and attention to detail in this gouache on paper rendition of Brer Rabbit, we are reminded of the enduring power of storytelling. It serves as a reminder that even in challenging times or when faced with adversity like Brer Fox lurking nearby, wit and resourcefulness can lead us towards triumph. This delightful artwork is part of a private collection and offers an opportunity to appreciate not only Rountree's talent but also celebrate the rich cultural heritage embedded within Uncle Remus stories.
