This print titled "Was not that a dainty Dish To set before the King?, 1880" takes us back to the enchanting world of nursery rhymes and children's literature in the 19th century. Created by renowned artist Randolph Caldecott, this illustration is part of his work in "Sing a Song of Sixpence", published by George Routledge & Sons in London. The image transports us to a vibrant dining table where an array of colorful birds have gathered around a magnificent pie. As we delve into the scene, we can almost hear their melodious voices as they begin to sing upon opening the pie. The blackbirds take center stage, their beautiful plumage contrasting against the backdrop of richly decorated furniture fit for royalty. Caldecott's attention to detail brings this whimsical moment to life, capturing both the joyous atmosphere and intricate expressions on each bird's face. This artwork not only showcases his artistic prowess but also highlights his ability to create engaging illustrations that captivate both children and adults alike.
