There Was a Little Man and He Had a Little Gun - Victorian nursery rhyme illustration
A man in a punt is aiming his blunderbuss at a flying duck, while a woman stands on the riverbank in line of fire, should the dog in the boat jog the mans arm. We must also hope that the sportsman has not indulged too freely in the contents of the jug of punch behind the servant who is propelling the punt.
From " Nursery Rhymes - Ridicula Rediviva" illustrated by J.E. Rogers, with chromolith printing by R. Clay Sons & Taylor and published in London in 1876 by Macmillan and Co

EDITORS COMMENTS
This Victorian nursery rhyme illustration takes us back in time to a whimsical scene filled with both charm and danger. The print depicts a man in a punt, fully engrossed in his pursuit of shooting down a flying duck. With his blunderbuss aimed high, he risks not only the bird's life but also that of an unsuspecting woman standing on the riverbank directly in line of fire. As we observe this comical yet precarious situation, our hopes lie with the dog accompanying the sportsman. Should it accidentally jostle the man's arm, disaster could strike for both the intended target and the innocent bystander. Additionally, we cannot overlook the potential influence of alcohol on this adventure-seeking marksman; behind him stands a servant holding a jug of punch, leaving us to wonder if indulgence may impair his accuracy or judgment. Illustrated by J. E. Rogers and brought to life through chromolith printing by R. Clay Sons & Taylor, this image is part of "Nursery Rhymes - Ridicula Rediviva" published by Macmillan and Co in London during 1876. Through its intricate details and vibrant colors, this artwork transports us into an era where nursery rhymes were beautifully illustrated tales meant to captivate young minds while providing amusement for adults as well. It serves as a reminder that even within innocent verses lies hidden humor and unexpected peril.
