EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The pass around the can, my boys" artist Randolph Caldecott takes us back in time to a lively scene filled with excitement and merriment. The image showcases a group of soldiers, dressed in their vibrant uniforms, engaging in a spirited game of passing around a can. Their faces are alight with laughter and camaraderie as they enjoy each other's company. Surrounded by the picturesque English countryside, we see hints of a fox hunt taking place in the background. Horsemen gallop alongside hounds, creating an atmosphere of adventure and thrill. This playful gathering seems to be part celebration, part revelry after a successful day on horseback. Caldecott's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this enchanting composition. From the intricately designed costumes worn by both soldiers and partygoers to the joyful expressions on their faces, he brings life and energy into every stroke. This print is taken from "The Hey Diddle Diddle Picture Book" published by Frederick Warne circa 1920s. It beautifully captures the essence of childhood nursery rhymes while also showcasing Caldecott's remarkable talent as an engraver. Whether displayed in a child's room or admired for its historical charm, this delightful artwork transports viewers into an era where joyous celebrations were shared amongst friends against the backdrop of nature's beauty.
