EDITORS COMMENTS
This cover design for Dutch Dolls Polka, a lively and spirited tune penned by May Ostlere and published by Enoch & Sons in London during the late 1800s, showcases a charming and whimsical scene. The image depicts a vast expanse of water, dotted with an array of wooden Dutch dolls, each one clad in traditional Dutch attire, as they float serenely in a large tub. The tranquility of the scene is contrasted by the distant horizon, where more tubs filled with dolls can be seen adrift, casting a sense of uncertainty and adventure. The historical context of the design is further emphasized by the military and brass band instruments that can be discerned in the background, hinting at the availability of arrangements for various musical ensembles. The intricate details of the dolls and the textured water surface add to the overall charm of the design, transporting us back to the Victorian era. The image evokes a sense of survival and castaway tales, where the dolls, much like castaways, are left to the mercy of the sea, awaiting rescue. The use of wooden dolls adds a nostalgic touch, reminding us of simpler times and the joy of childhood toys. The Dutch Dolls Polka cover design is a delightful representation of the song's playful and lighthearted nature, making it a must-have for any collection of historical music or Victorian-era memorabilia.
