Town and Country Children - drawn by Gavarni, 1850. Creator: Unknown
Town and Country Children - drawn by Gavarni, 1850. Illustration to a poem by Thomas Miller on the joys of rural life: Children there are in many a street Who never press'd beneath their feet The daisies; or on dale or down Saw husky harvest waving brown; Never beheld the wild rose blow, Saw May hang out her sheeted snow, Or heard, o'erhead, in early spring, The lute-voiced skylark carolling; Who share no joy, and feel no woe, Whether the flowers come or go, Nor to the woods go "summering". From "Illustrated London News", 1850

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Town and Country Children" and drawn by Gavarni in 1850, transports us back to a simpler time of rural bliss. The illustration accompanies a poem by Thomas Miller that extols the joys of countryside life, contrasting it with the stark reality faced by children in urban streets.
In this scene, we see two children happily pushing a perambulator along a country lane, surrounded by nature's beauty. They are depicted with carefree expressions, embodying the innocence and happiness that comes from being connected to the land.
The detailed engraving captures the essence of 19th-century Britain, showcasing a moment of pure joy amidst fields of waving harvest and blooming wild roses. The artist's attention to detail brings to life the idyllic setting described in Miller's poem, where daisies are pressed beneath little feet and skylarks sing overhead.
As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are reminded of the simple pleasures found in nature – something that all children should have the opportunity to experience. It serves as a poignant reminder of how important it is for young ones to connect with their surroundings and find joy in the beauty that surrounds them.
