EDITORS COMMENTS
Pug Peter and the Unlikely Alliance: A Tale of Friendship and Protection in the Edith Nesbit's 'The Vulture's House' (1905) In this enchanting Edwardian photograph, a pug named Pug Peter stands guard over a frightened rabbit, as four vultures look on with unpleasant smiles. This scene is taken from the beloved children's story 'The Vulture's House' by renowned author Edith Nesbit, published in 1905. The story follows the adventures of a group of children who stumble upon a hidden world inhabited by animals, including Pug Peter, a loyal and brave pug, and a timid rabbit. In this moment, the vultures, known for their predatory ways, have cornered the rabbit, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. But Pug Peter, ever the protector, steps in between his friend and the danger, offering comfort and security. The photograph captures the essence of the story, with Pug Peter's unwavering loyalty and determination shining through. His presence not only comforts the rabbit but also deters the vultures, who seem to hesitate in their approach. The scene is a testament to the power of friendship and the lengths one animal will go to protect another. This photograph, with its timeless charm and intriguing story, offers a glimpse into the world of Edith Nesbit's beloved children's literature and the historical context of the early 20th century.
