EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the legendary figure of the Old Man of Peru, as portrayed in Edward Lear's beloved poem "There was an Old Man of Peru." Published in 1846, this nonsensical verse tells the tale of an old man who, feeling lost and uncertain, decides to tear out his hair and behave like a bear. The historical context of this whimsical character is shrouded in mystery, as no definitive evidence exists linking him to any specific Peruvian folklore or history. The intriguing image showcases the Old Man of Peru in all his wild glory, with his long, flowing hair and exaggerated features that reflect the playful, absurdist nature of Lear's verse. Dressed in traditional Peruvian garb, he appears to be in the midst of a wild dance or celebration, further emphasizing the sense of uninhibited joy and freedom that permeates the poem. This print, which dates back to the mid-19th century, is a rare and intriguing glimpse into the world of Edward Lear and the enduring appeal of his nonsensical poetry. The image, published by Mary Evans Prints Online, is a beautiful and enchanting reminder of the power of imagination and the timeless allure of a good story, no matter how absurd it may be. Whether you're a fan of Edward Lear, a collector of historical prints, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty and whimsy of the written word, this Old Man of Peru print is sure to bring a smile to your face and a sense of wonder to your day.
