EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph titled "Ding dong bell, Pussys in the well" transports us to a whimsical world of nursery rhymes and childhood mischief. The vibrant colors bring life to this English School masterpiece, now held in a private collection. The image depicts a scene from the popular children's rhyme, where little Tommy Green mischievously places a cat inside a well. However, our attention is quickly drawn to the unexpected hero of the story - a dog with an elongated snout emerges as the savior of poor pussy cat. This delightful twist reminds us that appearances can be deceiving and teaches young minds about compassion and empathy. Published in Routledges Nursery Book by George Routledge & Sons in 1865, this print captures not only the charm of traditional nursery rhymes but also provides insight into fashion trends and clothing styles prevalent during that era. It serves as both an educational tool for children and an artistic representation of historical times. Bridgeman Images' reproduction allows us to appreciate this timeless artwork while preserving its essence for generations to come. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we are reminded of the joyous innocence found within children's literature - where imagination knows no bounds and tales unfold like magic before our eyes.
