EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Mr Pease Greene and the Celestial Ducklings" we are transported to a picturesque scene in China. The print, created by Frederick Henry Townsend in 1894, showcases the fascinating encounter between Mr Pease Greene and a group of celestial ducklings. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are immediately drawn to Mr Pease Greene, an Englishman who finds himself amidst an exotic setting. With his overweening pride evident on his face, he stands tall on a quay surrounded by elaborate arrangements in the public gardens. The clipped wings of these celestial ducks suggest they have been specially prepared for this occasion. The reception given to Mr Pease Greene is nothing short of extraordinary as fascinated onlookers gather around him. It seems that even the intelligent custodian has not seen such a spectacle before. These Asian ducks with their vibrant plumage symbolize both beauty and mystery from distant lands. Lost in thought, one cannot help but wonder about Mr Pease Greene's endeavors that led him here or what brought these celestial ducklings all the way from Asia to England. Perhaps it was their undeniable charm that puffed up his curiosity or maybe it was simply fate that brought them together. This enchanting engraving reminds us of how art can transport us across time and space, allowing us to witness forgotten moments like this one. As we admire Townsend's skillful depiction of this unique encounter between cultures, we are reminded of the endless wonders waiting to be discovered beyond
