EDITORS COMMENTS
In this coloured engraving, titled "Raising the Bird Pole" we are transported back to the 19th century. The scene depicts a bustling winter day in an English village, where a group of children and adults are engaged in a communal effort. Amidst a snowy landscape, we see people wielding shovels and sledgehammers as they work together to raise a tall wooden pole. This pole serves as a perch for various birds that add charm and liveliness to the village. As the engraving suggests, it was published in the Leisure Hour on January 1st, 1869. The image is filled with delightful details - from cabins nestled among towering trees to architectural elements that showcase traditional English design. Children can be seen eagerly participating in this task, their rosy cheeks contrasting against the white snow. Birds flutter around them, adding an element of whimsy and wonder. Among them are sea birds and fowls, creating an enchanting wildlife tableau within this wintry setting. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes feelings of community spirit and harmony with nature. It reminds us of simpler times when working together towards common goals brought joy and fulfillment. As we gaze upon this charming engraving by English School from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we cannot help but feel connected to both our past heritage and the beauty found within everyday life.
