You May Fly to the Moon to Play
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and whimsical illustration by Minnie Asprey, created around 1918. This delightful work of art is a visual representation of the classic nursery rhyme of the same name, which invites children to imagine flying to the moon for a playful adventure. Minnie Asprey's illustration captures the pure joy and excitement of a child's imagination as they contemplate the possibility of flying to the moon. The central figure in the image is a cheerful, yellow-clad child with a broad, smiling face, gazing up at the night sky with wonder and longing. The child's arms are outstretched as if in flight, and their expression suggests that they believe they can actually make the journey. The background of the illustration is filled with a star-studded night sky, with the moon looming large and inviting in the distance. The use of soft, pastel colors adds to the dreamlike quality of the image, creating a sense of magic and possibility. This illustration is a beautiful reminder of the power of imagination and the boundless potential that lies within each of us. It invites us to dream, to explore, and to believe in the impossible, just as the child in the illustration does. Whether hanging in a nursery or displayed in a more adult setting, "You May Fly to the Moon to Play" is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who sees it. Minnie Asprey was a prolific and talented illustrator who created many beloved works during the early 20th century. Her illustrations were often featured in children's books and magazines, and her unique style and sense of whimsy continue to captivate audiences today. This particular illustration is a testament to her ability to bring the magic of childhood to life through her art.
