EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and lively illustration captures the essence of a joyous celebration in the 17th century. The scene depicts a group of lasses and lads, dressed in traditional attire, seeking permission from their fathers to join the festivities at the may-pole. With excitement in their eyes and anticipation in their steps, they make their way towards the towering may-pole. The artist, Walter Crane, skillfully brings this English folk ballad to life with his use of color and intricate details. The women are adorned with flowing dresses and flowers adorning their hair while the men sport hats and breeches. A fiddler stands at the center of attention, playing a lively tune that sets the rhythm for dancing. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost hear the cheerful melodies filling the air as couples twirl around each other with grace and merriment. It is evident that this gathering is not just about dancing but also about community spirit and celebrating spring's arrival. Theo Marzials' musical arrangements accompany these old songs perfectly, adding an extra layer of enchantment to this nostalgic scene. This artwork serves as a reminder of simpler times when people would come together to revel in music, dance, and camaraderie. Overall, "Come Lasses & Lads" invites us into a world where tradition meets festivity; it reminds us to embrace our roots while finding joy in shared experiences.
