EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print depicts the popular nursery rhyme character, Mother Hubbard, making a curtsey. The image, believed to be from around 1770, showcases the dame in traditional attire, complete with a large cap, a long, voluminous gown, and a shawl draped over her shoulders. Her expression is demure and graceful as she bows to an unseen observer. The artist of this print remains anonymous, adding to the mystery and allure of this historical piece. The intricate details of Mother Hubbard's clothing and the delicate shading on her face suggest the skillful hand of a master engraver. The background of the print is simple, with only a few trees and a winding path visible, allowing the focus to remain on the subject. Mother Hubbard is a well-known figure in English folklore, and her story has been passed down through generations. The earliest known version of the rhyme dates back to the late 17th century, and it tells the tale of a woman who goes to the market with her dog, only to return home and find that her husband has been eaten by a tiger. Despite this tragic turn of events, Mother Hubbard continues on her journey, determined to complete her errands. This print offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of nursery rhymes and the folk tales that have shaped our cultural heritage. The image of Mother Hubbard making a curtsey is a reminder of the enduring power of storytelling and the importance of preserving our rich literary traditions.
