Lear Nonsense Pussy Ring Sell Songs Stories Pussy Cat


EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time in the whimsical world of Edward Lear, the beloved English artist and author, resided the enchanting tale of "The Owl and the Pussy-Cat." This charming narrative, first published in 1871, is a timeless example of nonsense verse and has captivated readers of all ages for generations. In this delightful scene from the story, the anthropomorphic Owl and Pussy-Cat, dressed in their finest attire, approach a rather surprised-looking Pig, who is shown standing in his garden. The Owl, with a hopeful expression, inquires, "Will you sell me a ring with a bell on it, / Shall I wear it all on my nose?" The Pig, taken aback by the unusual request, replies, "I will not sell it you, I'll tell you why, / 'Seems to me you don't want to buy, / But a ring as you're wearing now, / Is worth ten rings without a bow." This moment from the story is brought to life in this beautiful print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The vibrant colors and intricate details showcase the unique charm and whimsy of Edward Lear's beloved characters. The Owl, with his wise, knowing expression, and the Pussy-Cat, with her playful, curious gaze, are sure to delight and entertain. This image is a testament to the enduring appeal of "The Owl and the Pussy-Cat" and the rich history of nonsense literature. The story has been passed down through generations, inspiring countless adaptations in various forms, from books and songs to artwork and even ballet. This print is a must-have for any collector of Edward Lear's work or for those who appreciate the timeless charm of nonsense verse.
