EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Rats!" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment in history with its vivid colors and intricate details. The scene depicts a young boy bravely walking along the riverbank accompanied by his loyal dog. Clutching a walking stick, he exudes determination as he engages in the age-old activity of ratting. The artist skillfully portrays the boy's excitement and curiosity as he encounters a group of mischievous rats scurrying about. His cap sits jauntily on his head, adding to his youthful charm. The child's companion is seen nearby, perhaps offering encouragement or sharing in this thrilling adventure. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for The Childs Companion around 1892, showcasing its historical significance and connection to children's literature of that era. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children found joy in exploring nature and engaging with their surroundings. The attention to detail is remarkable; from the texture of the boy's clothing to the expressions on both human and animal faces, every element comes together harmoniously. This print captures not only a specific moment but also evokes nostalgia for childhood innocence and wonder. Displayed proudly within private collections today, this charming piece continues to captivate viewers with its timeless appeal. Its vibrant hues bring life into any space while serving as a testament to our shared history and enduring fascination with art that tells stories from generations past.
