EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming lithograph titled "Watching the Bees" artist Percy James Billinghurst takes us on a journey into the wonders of nature through the eyes of children. The print, part of a private collection, captures a moment of innocent curiosity and exploration. Set in a walled garden teeming with life, two young children are engrossed in observing bees buzzing around blooming flowers. Their faces radiate excitement and awe as they witness these tiny creatures diligently collecting nectar. A tortoise leisurely grazes nearby, while an attentive frog perches on a lily pad, adding to the enchanting atmosphere. Billinghurst's illustration was originally created for "A Nursery Book of Science" by "The Cockiolly Bird". Published around 1920 by T Nelson, this educational book aimed to introduce young minds to various scientific concepts using relatable imagery. This delightful artwork not only showcases childhood innocence but also highlights the importance of understanding our natural world. Through their observation and fascination with bees and blossoms, these children embark on a journey of discovery that will shape their understanding of botany and science. As we gaze upon this scene captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that even in today's fast-paced world, there is still magic to be found when we take the time to appreciate nature's phenomena alongside our own childhood wonderment.
