EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming vintage print captures a whimsical scene from the beloved children's story, "Peter Rabbit Little Red Hen and Owl and Pussy Cat". The illustration depicts a delightful array of characters in an inviting interior setting. In the foreground, we see the little red hen perched on a beam overhead, her bushy tail swaying gracefully. She appears to be in mid-flight, as if she just had enough time to soar across the room. The attention to detail is remarkable - from the hen's vibrant red coat and yellow waistcoat to the assortment of pots, jars, and onions scattered about. A tea set with a flagon catches our eye, hinting at a cozy gathering that has taken place or is about to commence. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this artwork evokes nostalgia for classic children's tales that have stood the test of time. It invites us into an imaginary world where animals possess human-like qualities and embark on enchanting adventures. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of an apron pattern, this chromolithograph transports us back to early 20th-century storytelling traditions. It serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and a cherished memento for those who hold fond memories of childhood stories close to their hearts.
