EDITORS COMMENTS
First Come, First Served: Hungry Peter as a Piglet (1912) - A charming and humorous illustration of the classic tale "The Three Little Pigs" where we find ourselves in an unexpected moment from the early life of our beloved character, Hungry Peter, as a mischievous piglet. In this delightful image, Peter, depicted as a tiny, adorable piglet with an insatiable appetite, is seen unwittingly stealing poultry food meant for the cock and hens. With a determined snout and a quick grab, Peter reaches into the bowl, unaware of the angry reaction from the birds. The hens, with their sharp beaks and protective instincts, swiftly peck at the intruder, driving him away from their meal. The scene takes place in a lively farmyard setting, filled with the rustic charm of rural life. This print, dated back to 1912, offers a glimpse into the rich history of animal folktales and the playful antics of Hungry Peter. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of the age-old tale, reminding us of the importance of sharing and the natural instincts of animals in a lighthearted and entertaining way.
