This print titled "Q: Skittles, 1890 (illustration)" takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century France. The French School's meticulous illustration measures 20 x 14 cm and is part of a private collection. It originates from an educational book called "Fun alphabet for little girls" published by Louis Vagne in Pont-a-Mousson around 1890. The image showcases a delightful scene filled with vibrant colors and charming details. A group of young girls can be seen engrossed in a game of skittles, a popular leisure activity during that era. Their playful expressions and animated gestures capture the joyous spirit of childhood perfectly. Surrounded by plush animals, these children are not only entertained but also educated through this interactive toy. Each skittle represents an alphabet letter, making it both fun and educational for the little ones. The fashion sense depicted in this artwork reflects the trends prevalent in late nineteenth-century France. The stylish attire worn by the girls adds an element of sophistication to their innocent playtime. This print transports us to a time when simplicity was cherished, education was valued, and leisure activities were treasured moments shared among friends. It serves as a reminder that even amidst technological advancements, there is still beauty in embracing traditional forms of entertainment that foster creativity and learning.
