EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration by renowned British artist Cecil Aldin, dated 1927, captures the unlikely yet heartwarming friendship between Furrier the foxhound and Sally the West African monkey. The scene unfolds in a quintessential English setting, with Furrier, ears perked and eyes full of curiosity, gazing at Sally as she playfully holds a book in her hands. The monkey, dressed in a tiny red sweater, sits comfortably on a well-worn leather-bound book, surrounded by an array of other books, creating an atmosphere of learning and intellectual curiosity. The 1920s, also known as the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties, was a time of great social, cultural, and artistic change. Cecil Aldin, a master of capturing the essence of the British countryside and its inhabitants, expertly portrays the charm and whimsy of this unique friendship. The bond between Furrier and Sally transcends species, demonstrating that friendship knows no bounds. This illustration, with its intricate details and vivid colors, invites us to imagine the adventures and stories that unfolded between these two extraordinary characters. The image has been preserved in the annals of history, serving as a testament to the power of friendship and the enduring appeal of the stories and characters that have captured our hearts and imaginations for generations.
