The Year of the Poets -- Jolly Summer
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an enchanting 1845 illustration that captures the essence of summertime as depicted in the poems of renowned English poets, including Edmund Spenser. This charming print invites us to immerse ourselves in the seasonal delights and traditions that have long inspired poetic expression. In the foreground, a group of jovial figures dance and revel in the warm, sunlit day. A man, dressed in the fashion of the early Victorian era, reels in a fish from the riverbank, a nod to the popular pastime of fishing during the summer months. The idyllic scene is filled with the vibrant colors of nature, from the lush greenery and blooming flowers to the clear blue sky and shimmering water. Spenser's influence is evident in the poetic inscription that adorns the top of the print: "And now the year his head doth bear / The golden fruit of jolly summer." These lines, taken from Spenser's "Prothalamion," celebrate the abundance and joy that the summer season brings. The illustration also highlights other seasonal activities, such as the picking of ripe fruits and the gathering of wildflowers. These customs, passed down through generations, continue to be cherished traditions that evoke the spirit of summer and the poetry that has long celebrated its beauty. As we gaze upon "The Year of the Poets -- Jolly Summer," we are transported to a simpler time, where the pleasures of nature and the company of loved ones were the greatest joys of all. This print serves as a beautiful reminder of the enduring power of poetry to inspire and delight, and the timeless allure of the summer season.
