EDITORS COMMENTS
The Little Land (colour litho) by Jessie Willcox Smith captures the essence of childhood imagination and nostalgia. This enchanting print, part of a private collection, brings to life Robert Louis Stevenson's beloved poem 'A Child's Garden Of Verses' published in 1905. In this whimsical illustration, we are transported to a magical world where all it takes is closing our eyes to embark on an extraordinary adventure. With vibrant colors and intricate details, Smith masterfully depicts children sailing through the skies towards the pleasant Land of Play. The image evokes a sense of innocence and wonder that resonates with both young and old alike. It reminds us of simpler times when imagination knew no bounds and everyday objects could transform into gateways to fantastical realms. Smith's skillful brushwork beautifully complements Stevenson's timeless verses, creating a visual feast for the senses. The combination of history, poetry, and artistry makes this print a cherished piece for any collector or lover of literature. As we gaze upon 'The Little Land, ' we are reminded to embrace our inner child and cherish those fleeting moments filled with pure joy and boundless creativity. It serves as a gentle reminder that even in adulthood, there is always room for magic.
