EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a delightful scene from the Regency era, showcasing two children dressed in exquisite period clothing as they engage in a spirited game of shuttlecock and battledore. Set against the backdrop of a sunny village green, their innocent joy is palpable. The girl's delicate dress with its intricate details and the small boy's dapper attire transport us back to a bygone era. The idyllic setting is further enhanced by the presence of the village water pump standing proudly behind them, adding an authentic touch to this nostalgic image. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when outdoor play was cherished and communal spaces like village greens were at the heart of community life. Taken from Kate Greenaway's Birthday Book for Children, illustrated by Catherine Greenaway herself and accompanied by verses written by Mrs Sale Barker, this print exudes both artistic beauty and historical significance. Printed by Edmund Evans and published by George Routledge & Sons in London in 1880, it stands as a testament to enduring craftsmanship. Whitemay Fine Art Storehouse has expertly preserved this enchanting moment through their high-quality reproduction.
