Bush Childhood Mulberry Nursery Rhyme Rhymes Childrens
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming vintage print captures the essence of childhood innocence as it depicts a group of young children, bundled up against the cold, engaging in the playful activity of going around the mulberry bush. The nursery rhyme, "Here we go round the mulberry bush," is a classic example of the rich oral tradition that has been passed down through generations. The rhyme's simple, repetitive structure and delightful imagery have captured the imaginations of children for centuries. The illustration, which dates back to the 1930s, or the thirties as it was commonly referred to at the time, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to reflect on the simple joys of childhood. The children, dressed in warm coats and hats, seem to be having a wonderful time as they hold hands and make their way around the mulberry bush. The frosty morning landscape, with its bare trees and crisp air, adds to the sense of wonder and excitement. The mulberry bush, a common feature in many nursery rhymes, is believed to have originated from the 18th century. Its inclusion in this rhyme, and in countless others, speaks to the enduring power of these stories to capture the imaginations of children and transport them to new and magical worlds. This print, with its charming illustration and rich historical context, is a treasure for anyone interested in the history of childhood and the enduring power of nursery rhymes.
