This vintage print captures the essence of Guy Fawkes Day, transporting us back to the enchanting world of Old Mother Goose's Rhymes and Tales. Published by Frederick Warne & Co. in the late 1890s, this chromolitho masterpiece by Constance Haslewood is a true gem from a bygone era. In this scene, we witness a group of young boys eagerly celebrating this historic event with great fervor. Clutching their cherished penny for the guy, they proudly carry a dummy representing Guy Fawkes himself through the streets. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as these children embody the spirit of rebellion and mischief that has become synonymous with November 5th. The intricate details in this children's illustration transport us into a Victorian wonderland where nursery rhymes come to life. The vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes bring an undeniable charm to every element depicted - from the mischievous expressions on each child's face to the carefully crafted dummy they carry.
