Ethel Hubbard Nursery Parkinson Rhyme Nursey
Old Mother Hubbard
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a classic English nursery rhyme that has been delighting children for generations. This beautiful print, created by the talented artist Ethel Parkinson in 1910, brings the beloved rhyme to life in a charming and whimsical way. The scene depicts Old Mother Hubbard, a kind and caring woman with a gentle expression on her face, standing in her kitchen. She is dressed in traditional Victorian attire, with a long apron covering her dress and a cap on her head. In her hand, she holds a long wooden spoon, ready to stir a pot on the open hearth. Behind her, on the table, are various items mentioned in the rhyme: a cow, a dog, a pig, and a dish of broth. The cow and the dog are depicted as anthropomorphic characters, with the cow wearing a red bow on its head and the dog sitting obediently by Old Mother Hubbard's side. The pig, with its curly tail and rosy cheeks, is peeking out from a basket. The print is filled with intricate details that add to the storytelling, such as the patterned wallpaper, the pots and pans hanging on the wall, and the wooden shelves filled with jars and bottles. The use of warm colors and soft lighting creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere, making it a perfect addition to any nursery or children's room. Ethel Parkinson's illustration captures the essence of the nursery rhyme, bringing the characters and the story to life in a way that is both timeless and enduring. This beautiful print is a testament to the power of art to transport us to another world and to ignite our imaginations. Whether it is a cherished family heirloom or a new addition to a collection, this print is sure to bring joy and wonder to all who behold it.
