EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming engraving titled "John Cook had a little grey mare" we are transported back to the world of nursery rhymes and childhood innocence. Created by Leonard Leslie Brooke in 1897, this print captures the essence of traditional children's verse. The image depicts a young child named John Cook standing beside his beloved little grey mare. The mare stands gracefully, her gentle eyes reflecting kindness and trust. John gazes at her with admiration, his face filled with joy and wonderment. This enchanting illustration was originally featured in The Nursery Rhyme Book edited by Andrew Lang, a collection that has brought delight to generations of children. It perfectly embodies the magic and simplicity found within nursery rhymes - tales that have been passed down through time as cherished treasures for young minds. Brooke's artistic style is both whimsical and detailed, capturing every nuance of expression on John's face and every strand of hair on the mare's mane. His skillful use of line work brings life to each element within the scene. As we gaze upon this delightful print, we can't help but be reminded of our own childhoods - when simple rhymes could transport us to imaginary worlds where anything was possible. This timeless artwork serves as a beautiful reminder that even as adults, we should never lose touch with our inner childlike wonderment.
