EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting world of children's toys and education in the late 19th century. Titled "Letters V, W and X: Shuttlecock; Wagon; Sherry" this engraving from the ABC des joujoux ou Alphabet des tout petits collection by Gaston Quenioux takes us on a journey through the alphabet. In this particular image, we are introduced to three letters - V, W, and X - each represented by a delightful object. The letter V is depicted as a flying wheel or shuttlecock, symbolizing movement and playfulness. The letter W takes shape as a charming wagon, evoking thoughts of adventure and exploration. Finally, the letter X is embodied by a bottle of Xeres wine (sherry), adding an element of sophistication to this whimsical composition. The artist's attention to detail shines through in this engraving from 1897. Each drawing is carefully colored and exudes a sense of childhood innocence and joy. From plush animals to ball games, these illustrations capture the essence of playtime during that era. As we admire this piece captured by Duvallon's lens, we are transported back in time to an era where learning was intertwined with fun-filled activities. This print serves as both an homage to French culture and European traditions while reminding us of the importance of imagination in early childhood education.
