Birthday Bonnet Cottage Frilly Greenaway Kate Meal Polite
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and idyllic illustration from the 1880s, three young girls are having a delightful tea party in the open air. The scene takes place in front of a quaint, Victorian cottage, adorned with climbing ivy and colorful flowers. The girls, dressed in frilly, white dresses and matching bonnets, sit on a checkered blanket spread out on the lush, green grass. The eldest girl, Kate, pours tea from a delicate, floral teapot into three small, white cups. Her sisters, with rosy cheeks and bright eyes, eagerly await their turn to take a sip. A book lies open nearby, suggesting that this tea party may be in celebration of a birthday or other special occasion. The girls exhibit the polite and refined manners typical of the Victorian era, with one girl holding a cup and saucer in both hands and another placing her hand over her heart as she listens intently to the conversation. The setting sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene, adding to the sense of serenity and contentment. This beautiful illustration, created by an unknown artist and available through Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the essence of childhood innocence and the simple pleasures of a bygone era. The girls' laughter, the rustling of the leaves in the gentle breeze, and the sweet aroma of tea and flowers all combine to create a moment of pure joy and happiness.
