EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving, titled "To market, to market, to buy a fat pig" transports us back in time to an era filled with nursery rhymes and riddles. The intricate illustrative technique of this engraved image showcases the artistic mastery of the Victorian period. The scene depicted is reminiscent of a bustling marketplace where people gather to purchase various goods. The central focus lies on a chubby pig, symbolizing prosperity and abundance. Its presence evokes feelings of delight and anticipation as we imagine the joyous journey home with such a prized possession. The rhythmic repetition of "Home again, home again, jiggety jig" adds a playful touch to the narrative. It echoes through our minds like a melodic chant that accompanies each step taken towards one's humble abode. Interestingly, this enchanting print not only portrays the quest for acquiring pigs but also introduces an unexpected twist - buying a fat frog! This whimsical addition injects humor into the composition while showcasing the imaginative nature of nursery rhymes. As we admire this vintage gem from 1882, it serves as both an artifact from history and an embodiment of timeless artistry. Its retro style takes us on a visual voyage through time while reminding us of our rich cultural heritage. This nineteenth-century engraving by 000144 from Liszt Collection captures our imagination with its historic charm and offers us glimpses into past traditions that continue to resonate today.
