EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming vintage print titled "Victorian children playing at being Infantrymen" we are transported back to a bygone era filled with innocence and imagination. The image captures a delightful scene of an assortment of young children, donned in makeshift military attire, marching behind their commander. Armed with walking sticks and an umbrella, these pint-sized soldiers exude determination as they mimic the bravery and discipline of real infantrymen. The attention to detail is remarkable; each child's expression reflects their commitment to the game, their eyes shining with excitement and camaraderie. Accompanying the troop is a baby banging on a drum, adding an element of whimsy to this playful tableau. It serves as a reminder that even in childhood games, there is room for inclusion and shared joy. This reproduction from R. Caldecott's "A Sketch-Book" showcases Edmund Evans' exceptional engraving skills while capturing the essence of Victorian childhood pastimes. Published by G. Routledge & Sons in London around 1883, it stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of innocent playfulness throughout generations. Whitemay Fine Art Storehouse has preserved this timeless piece for art enthusiasts who appreciate nostalgia and historical charm. With its vibrant colors and evocative subject matter, this print brings warmth and smiles into any space it graces – reminding us all that sometimes all you need is imagination and simple props to embark on grand adventures.
