Baker Bobbity Breed Breeds Crust Frightened Kitten Koko Margaret Pekinese Pekingese Scared 1937

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from the 1930s, Koko the dog, a large and imposing breed with piercing eyes, recalls a memory of his youthful escapade. The silhouetted scene depicts Koko towering over a tiny, frightened kitten, a Pekinese or Pekingese breed, perched precariously in the branches of a tree. The kitten's wide-eyed expression and quivering body language speak volumes of its fear, as it clings to the tree trunk for dear life. Mary Evans Prints Online dates this illustration to 1937, making it a cherished relic of the past. The children gathered around, including Margaret and Bobbity, watch in awe as Koko remembers the incident. The dog's powerful jaws are slightly agape, as if reliving the moment when he successfully frightened the kitten into the tree. The design of the illustration is simple yet effective, with bold lines and a striking contrast between the dark silhouettes and the white background. The use of a crust texture adds an authentic, vintage feel to the image, transporting us back to the 1930s. Although the breeds of the dog and kitten are not explicitly stated, their distinct appearances are clear. Koko's massive size and robust build are in stark contrast to the delicate and small frame of the kitten. This illustration serves as a reminder of the playful yet sometimes intimidating dynamics between different breeds and the natural world around them. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be transported back in time, imagining the laughter and excitement that must have filled the room as Koko shared his tale of bravery and mischief.
