EDITORS COMMENTS
The Price of a Pear" is a charming postcard by the renowned English illustrator, Lawson Wood. This delightful image captures the essence of childhood innocence and the irresistible allure of nature. The young lad in the illustration, dressed in his school uniform, is seen carrying a bundle of textbooks under his arm, indicating that he is on his way to or from school. However, the sight of a tempting, prime juicy pear hanging from a tree in an orchard proves to be too much of a temptation for him. With a mischievous grin on his face, he has climbed the wall surrounding the orchard and reached out to pluck the pear, unaware of the consequence that awaits him. The result of his impulsive act is evident in the torn britches, or trousers, that are visible in the illustration. The torn fabric adds a touch of authenticity to the scene, making it all the more relatable for anyone who has ever indulged in the forbidden fruit as a child. The historical context of the illustration is further emphasized by the old-fashioned wall, the textured tree bark, and the quaint setting. Lawson Wood's masterful use of color and shading adds depth and texture to the image, making it a visual treat for the eyes. The illustration is a testament to the simple joys of childhood and the enduring appeal of nature. It is a reminder that sometimes, the price of a pear can be worth the risk, even if it means a pair of torn britches. This postcard is a must-have for anyone who cherishes the memories of their childhood or appreciates the timeless art of Lawson Wood.
