EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "English Money, copper, silver and gold" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the history of childhood and education. The image is part of Aunt Louisa's First Reading and Nursery Rhyme Book, published by Frederick Warne around 1890. The print showcases various English coins from that era, ranging from farthings to sovereigns. It serves as an educational tool for young readers to learn about different denominations and their relationships in coinage. The table of calculations on display highlights the importance of understanding currency in daily life. Notably, this artwork also emphasizes the significance of reigning monarchs during Victorian times. The obverse side of each coin features portraits of these rulers who held authority over England at different periods. As we delve into this nostalgic scene, we are reminded of the joyous moments spent reading as children. This print evokes feelings of curiosity and wonderment while immersing ourselves in historical knowledge through engaging literature. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece from a private collection, allowing us to appreciate its artistic value today.
