EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of innocent playfulness and imagination. Taken from the renowned book "A Child's Garden of Verses" by Robert Louis Stevenson, published in 1885, this colour lithograph beautifully depicts a young girl hiding in a hayloft. Dressed in a charming bonnet and straw hat, the girl is engrossed in a game of hide-and-seek. With her body partially concealed amidst the golden haystacks, she exudes an air of excitement and anticipation. The artist, Jessie Willcox Smith, masterfully brings to life the joyous spirit of childhood through her detailed illustration. The hayloft serves as both a sanctuary and playground for this little adventurer. As she rests hidden among nature's bounty, one can almost feel her heart racing with delight at being discovered or remaining undetected. This artwork not only celebrates the innocence and simplicity of childhood but also invites viewers to reminisce about their own carefree days spent playing games with friends or siblings. It reminds us that even in today's fast-paced world, there is still room for imagination and wonderment. Displayed proudly within private collections worldwide, this enchanting image continues to inspire generations with its timeless charm. Its universal appeal resonates with anyone who has ever been captivated by the magic found within children's literature or experienced the thrill of seeking out secret hiding spots during playful adventures.
