EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming 19th-century illustration captures a delightful scene of some mischievous pigs who have strayed from their sty. The print, titled "P: P for some Pigs, which have strayed from their sty, but of course will return there to bed by-and-by" was created in 1870 by J. Howard and is part of the "Aunt Louisa's wee wee stories" collection. The image showcases the countryside landscape with lush green fields as the backdrop for these playful animals. The pigs are depicted in vibrant colors through chromolithography printing, adding to the overall charm of the artwork. Their curious expressions and energetic postures suggest that they are enjoying their temporary freedom before eventually returning home. This illustration is just one page out of a larger alphabet primer known as "Country Alphabet". It was part of a series that included other classic nursery rhymes such as "Baby" "Hey Diddle Diddle" and "My Mother". The entire book consisted of 112 pages filled with captivating illustrations by J. Howard. With its nostalgic feel and whimsical depiction of farm animals, this print evokes a sense of innocence and simplicity that resonates even today. It serves as a reminder that sometimes it's okay to stray off our path but ultimately find comfort in returning to familiar places like these adorable little pigs finding their way back to their sty.
