EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a whimsical scene from a Victorian nursery rhyme illustration titled "Jacky Come Give Me Thy Fiddle". In this enchanting image, we witness a portly medieval gentleman attempting to persuade a lively violin player to hand over his beloved instrument. However, the fiddler stands firm and refuses to part with his cherished possession. The accompanying verse adds depth to the narrative: "Jacky come give me thy fiddle - If ever thou mean to thrive - Nay I'll not give my fiddle - To any man alive. - If I should give my fiddle - They'll think that I'm gone mad - For many a joyful day - My fiddle and I have had". Illustrated by J. E. Rogers and published in London in 1876, this piece showcases the artistry of chromolith printing by R. Clay Sons & Taylor. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this fantastical world where nursery rhymes come alive. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, immersed in the joyous melody emanating from the violin strings. We can almost hear the music playing as both men engage in their playful exchange – one determined to possess the instrument while the other fiercely protects it. This print is an exquisite addition for those who appreciate nostalgia, fantasy, and musical delights. It serves as a reminder of how treasured possessions hold memories dear and evoke emotions that transcend time itself.
