Arthur Bought Caught Crooked Found Lived Mile Nursery Rackham Rhyme Rhymes Sixpence Stile Walked
EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time in a quirky and whimsical world, there lived a crooked man who walked a crooked mile. In his journey, he stumbled upon a crooked sixpence lying against a crooked stile. With a mischievous grin, the man bought a crooked cat from a nearby market, and the cat, in turn, caught a crooked mouse. And so, they all lived together in a little crooked house, embracing their unique imperfections and quirks. This charming illustration, taken from the Peter & Dawn Cope Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, brings to life the beloved nursery rhyme "There Was a Crooked Man." The illustration, created by renowned artist Arthur Rackham, captures the playful spirit of the rhyme and invites us to appreciate the beauty in imperfection. The crooked man, with his distinctive hunch and cane, exudes a sense of merriment as he goes about his day. The cat, with its twisted features, sits proudly on its hind legs, while the mouse, with its crooked whiskers, looks on curiously. The little crooked house, nestled among the trees, adds to the enchanting scene, inviting us to step into this whimsical world and join the crooked man and his companions in their quirky existence. This timeless illustration is a delightful reminder that even the most seemingly imperfect things can be beautiful in their own unique way.
