1881 Caldecott Crime Dresser Hearts Kitchen Knave Nursery Rhyme Sleeve Steal Stealing Stole Tarts
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled 'Nursery Rhyme: The Queen of Hearts, Caldecott, 3 of 8 - The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts,' is a delightful and historical representation of the beloved nursery rhyme character, the Queen of Hearts. The photograph, taken in 1881, showcases the Queen in her regal attire, complete with a heart-shaped sleeve, standing in a traditional Victorian-era kitchen. The Queen's stern expression and the mischievous grin of the cat at her feet add an element of intrigue and playfulness to the scene. The focus of this photograph, however, is not just on the Queen, but also on the infamous Knave of Hearts, who is depicted sneakily peeking out from behind the dresser, holding a stolen tart in his hand. The Caldecott title and number '3 of 8' in the image's title suggest that this photograph may be part of a larger series, possibly depicting other scenes from the popular nursery rhyme. The image's historical significance lies in its representation of a beloved nursery rhyme character in a realistic and detailed manner, providing a glimpse into the past and the Victorian era's fascination with fairy tales and folklore. The photograph also highlights the crime and mischief often associated with the Queen of Hearts and the Knave of Hearts, adding an element of excitement and adventure to the scene. Overall, this photograph is a charming and intriguing representation of a classic nursery rhyme, perfect for anyone interested in history, folklore, or simply the whimsy of the Victorian era.
