EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, titled "Cracker running with horse," is a delightful work of art by the renowned English artist Cecil Aldin, created in 1927. The image captures the playful antics of a terrier named Cracker as he darts in and out between the legs of Aldin's galloping horse. The rider, dressed in the fashionable attire of the 1920s, seems amused by the dog's exuberant behavior. Cecil Aldin (1870-1935) was a prolific illustrator, known for his charming and humorous depictions of dogs, horses, and country life. His illustrations often appeared in books, magazines, and calendars, making him a beloved figure in the world of British illustration during the early 20th century. The terrier breed, with its lively and energetic nature, was a favorite subject of Aldin's. In this illustration, Cracker embodies the spirit of the breed, displaying boundless energy and agility as he keeps pace with the horse. The horse, in turn, appears to take the interruption in its stride, maintaining its composure as it gallops along. This illustration is a charming snapshot of a bygone era, evoking the simple pleasures of rural life and the joy of spending time with beloved pets. It is a testament to Aldin's skill as an artist and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with warmth and humor.
