EDITORS COMMENTS
The Boaster, a captivating illustration from Baby's Own Aesop, transports us into the enchanting world of Aesop's fables. Engraved and printed by the talented Edmund Evans in London around 1920, this exquisite colour lithograph showcases the artistic brilliance of Walter Crane. In this scene, we witness a male character adorned in classical costume, exuding an air of arrogance and self-importance. His boastful demeanor is palpable as he revels in showing off his supposed accomplishments to anyone who will listen. However, hidden within this stunning artwork lies a profound moral tale - 'Deeds not Words. ' Crane's masterful storytelling through children's illustration reminds us that true greatness is not found in empty boasts or grandiose claims but rather in our actions and deeds. This timeless message resonates with readers young and old alike. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from our private collection, we are reminded of the power of art to convey important life lessons. It serves as a gentle reminder for all generations to embrace humility over hubris and let our actions speak louder than words. This remarkable piece captures both the beauty of Crane's artistic vision and the enduring relevance of Aesop's fables. It stands as a testament to their lasting impact on morality tales throughout history.
