EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: "A Flowery Encounter: Big Toby and Little Toby" Circa 1922, this still life painting showcases the charming juxtaposition of two Toby jugs, each with its unique character. The larger jug, affectionately named 'Big Toby,' boasts a robust, rustic appearance, its glazed surface adorned with intricate designs and vibrant hues. In contrast, 'Little Toby,' the smaller of the two, displays a more delicate and refined appearance, with subtle colors and intricate details that add to its charm. The two Toby jugs, placed facing away from each other, create an intriguing sense of mystery and intrigue. Between them sits a glass vase filled with an array of beautiful, blooming flowers. The petals of these blossoms cascade gracefully onto the surface of the table, creating a serene and picturesque scene. The colors in this painting are rich and vibrant, with the deep reds and yellows of the flowers, the earthy browns of the Toby jugs, and the cool blues and greens of the table and background. The attention to detail in the painting is remarkable, from the delicate petals of the flowers to the intricate designs on the Toby jugs. This beautiful work of art, a testament to the skill and artistry of the painter, is believed to date back to 1922. It was featured in Volume 16, April, of a popular magazine, under the title "March of the Women Collection," as part of a series of illustrations by the renowned artist Ethel Quixano Henríques. The painting is a visual delight, inviting the viewer to ponder the story behind these two intriguing Toby jugs and the beautiful flowers that bring them together.
