EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming vintage print captures a whimsical moment in the alphabet book "ABC fun" from the early 20th century. The letter V stands for Victorin, who finds himself in a bit of a predicament - he has broken his beloved violin! Illustrated by Monrocq Freres, this engraving is part of a 20-page collection that measures 24.5x18.5cm and is now housed in a private collection.
The scene depicts young Victorin looking crestfallen as he holds up his damaged instrument, surrounded by plush toys and other childhood trinkets. The colorful drawing exudes nostalgia for a simpler time when children played with handmade toys and learned their ABCs through imaginative illustrations.
The playful composition evokes feelings of innocence and mischief, reminding us of the joys (and occasional mishaps) of childhood. From the intricate details of Victorin's expression to the vibrant colors used in the artwork, every element tells a story that resonates with viewers across generations.
Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply appreciate historical artifacts, this enchanting engraving offers a glimpse into the past while sparking curiosity about the era it represents. It serves as a delightful reminder that even in moments of clumsiness or disgrace, there is beauty to be found in everyday life.
