EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, titled "Cracker the Bull Terrier," is a charming work of art by the renowned English artist Cecil Aldin from the year 1927. The illustration depicts a playful and intelligent bull terrier named Cracker, who sits calmly behind a desk, resting his chin thoughtfully on his paws. The expression on his face seems to convey a sense of gentle persistence, as if he is reminding his master that the book in hand is about dogs, not monkeys. The intricate details of Cracker's coat, the texture of the desk, and the folds of his master's jacket all add to the authenticity and charm of this delightful scene. Cecil Aldin was a prolific and popular illustrator during the 1920s, and his works often featured dogs and other animals in humorous and endearing situations. This illustration is a perfect example of Aldin's ability to capture the unique personality and character of his subjects. The illustration also provides a glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of the 1920s and the way animals were cherished and integrated into everyday life. The image is a beautiful reminder of the special bond between humans and their pets, and the enduring appeal of the bull terrier breed. It is a timeless piece that continues to delight and inspire, and a must-have for any dog lover or collector of vintage illustrations.
