EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and whimsical original artwork, titled "A Little Gnome Blowing His Nose," dates back to circa 1937, making it a delightful addition to any collection of vintage illustrations. The image features a little gnome or sprite, with pointed ears and a mischievous expression, as he sits comfortably on a toadstool. The gnome's attention is focused on blowing his nose using a handkerchief or hanky, possibly to alleviate a cold or runny nose. The sun is just beginning to rise in the background, casting a warm, yellow glow over the scene. The use of contrasting colors, such as the grey, black, and white tones of the gnome and toadstool, and the vibrant yellow of the sun, adds depth and visual interest to the piece. The intricate details of the gnome's features and clothing, as well as the textures of the toadstool and the foliage surrounding it, showcase the artist's skill and creativity. This enchanting illustration, with its playful subject matter and nostalgic charm, is a must-have for those who appreciate the art of the 1930s and the magical world of fairies, gnomes, and sprites.
