The Pig-Tail Whisperer,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a charming and humorous 20th-century comic postcard depicting a young, innocent girl in a pretty red dress and a waistcoat, engaging with a group of playful piglets and their mother sow in a rural countryside setting. The little girl, with a button nose and a wide, smiling grin, points at the pigs as if sharing a secret, while the pigs, with their humanized expressions and exaggerated features, nuzzle and bite at her waistcoat buttons. The mother sow, wearing a donkey-like ear, looks on with a mischievous grin, as if approving of the interaction between her offspring and the little girl. The scene is set against a rustic fence, adding to the idyllic and whimsical atmosphere of the image. This delightful postcard, reminiscent of the works of renowned British comic postcard artist Donald McGill, is a fun and lighthearted representation of the simple joys of country life and the bond between humans and animals.
