EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming 19th-century illustration captures the innocence and playfulness of childhood in a rural setting. The print, titled "G: G is the Goat, with two kids young and gay; They run to their mother, then scamper away" depicts a scene from Aunt Louisa's wee wee stories: Country Alphabet. Created by J. Howard around 1870, this chromolithography printing showcases the talent of both the illustrator and author Laura Jewry Valentine. In this particular image, we see a proud goat standing tall while her two energetic kids frolic nearby. The children are filled with joy as they run towards their mother before darting off again into the countryside landscape behind them. The vibrant colors used in this piece bring life to each element - from the lush green grass to the playful expressions on both goats' faces. Measuring at 27.5 x 23.5 cm, this delightful illustration is part of a private collection and holds sentimental value as evidenced by its handwritten dedication from 1875. The artwork not only serves as an alphabet primer but also celebrates farm animals and rural life in America during that era. It reminds us of simpler times when nature was our playground and family bonds were cherished above all else. Overall, this print evokes feelings of nostalgia while showcasing timeless themes that still resonate today – love for family, appreciation for nature's beauty, and the innocent joy found in childhood adventures.
