EDITORS COMMENTS
The Queen of the Pirate Isle: A Victorian Fantasy of Polly and the Red Rovers In this enchanting illustration from 1886, titled "The Queen of the Pirate Isle," we find ourselves in the midst of an intriguing scene. The focus is on a young girl named Polly, who is being held aloft by a dark-faced miner named Brother Step-and-Fetch-It. The miner, with his long beard and tall, broad-brimmed hat, stands amongst his fellow Red Rovers, who pay homage to Polly as their queen. Polly, dressed in a simple white blouse and a red bandana tied around her neck, gazes out with a confident and regal expression. Her long, curly brown hair cascades down her back, and her green eyes sparkle with mischief and determination. In her hand, she clutches a long, wooden doll, a symbol of her power and authority. The atmosphere is reminiscent of a fantasy world, where children's imaginations run wild, and pirates and miners coexist in harmony. The illustration, created by the renowned artist Randolph Caldecott, is a testament to the power of storytelling and the magic of childhood. The Red Rovers, with their rough, weathered faces and bandanas, stand in awe of their queen. Their eyes are fixed on Polly, as if she holds the key to their hearts and their dreams. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush greenery, with trees and vines entwined around the rocks and cliffs of the pirate isle. This illustration, created in 1886, is a reminder of the power of imagination and the boundless possibilities that exist within the minds of children. It is a timeless piece that continues to inspire and delight audiences of all ages.
