EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Geese chasing children for their food" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a lively scene from English countryside life. The illustration, originally featured in Chatterbox Magazine's Christmas Box in 1888, showcases the playful yet confrontational interaction between geese and children. In this vibrant image, we see two young boys and a girl running through a green pasture. Their colorful summer clothes flutter as they try to escape the determined geese hot on their heels. The children clutch pieces of bread or sandwiches tightly in their hands, representing their hunger and desire for sustenance. The artist skillfully depicts the idyllic farm setting with a charming farmhouse entrance in the background. The lithograph beautifully captures the essence of childhood innocence mixed with adventure as these youngsters engage with nature's creatures. This artwork not only highlights historical clothing styles but also evokes emotions of excitement and anticipation. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children played freely outdoors without distractions from modern technology. Bridgeman Images has preserved this delightful piece that transports us back to an era where farm animals were part of everyday life and interactions like these were commonplace. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both artistic technique and cultural history while immersing themselves in this enchanting moment captured by an unknown English School artist from the 19th century.
