Advice Aldin Cecil Character Drag Dragging Guidance Lead Terrier Terriers Walk Walkies 1927
EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful illustration by Cecil Aldin, titled 'Dog Walking,' captures the essence of an outing with a terrier in the 1920s. The scene portrays a man with a terrier on a lead, strolling through a park filled with other dogs. The terrier, with its alert and curious expression, seems more interested in the other canines than its owner. However, the caption serves as a reminder of the importance of proper dog walking etiquette, even in the 1920s. Dragging a dog away from every dog they meet can lead to unnecessary confrontations and potentially dangerous situations. Cecil Aldin's illustration highlights the potential consequences of such actions, as the terrier's body language suggests a desire to engage in a fight. Instead, dog owners are advised to keep a calm and steady pace, allowing their dogs to observe and interact with other dogs at a safe distance. This charming illustration is a snapshot of a bygone era, showcasing the character and charm of the 1920s. The man and his terrier, dressed in period attire, blend seamlessly into the picturesque setting, adding to the overall appeal of the scene. The presence of books in the background further emphasizes the leisurely pace of life during this time, as the man appears to be carrying a selection of literature for his enjoyment during his walk. Cecil Aldin was a renowned British illustrator, known for his depictions of dogs and country life. His work, including this illustration, continues to be cherished for its ability to evoke nostalgia and transport us to a simpler time. This print, dating back to 1927, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Cecil Aldin's art and the timeless joy of spending a day with a beloved pet.
