EDITORS COMMENTS
an enchanting illustration by the renowned Victorian artist, Kate Greenaway, published in 1881, depicts a charming scene of a little girl's morning awakening. The illustration captures the essence of new beginnings and the beauty of nature as it greets the day. The little girl lies peacefully in her four-poster bed, her eyes still closed, as the sun begins to peek through the curtains of her bedroom window. The room is adorned with a beautiful chair upholstered in a floral pattern, adding to the whimsical and dreamlike atmosphere. The sunflower motif on the chair and the sunflowers in the vase on the bedside table further emphasize the theme of new growth and the arrival of a new day. The scene is filled with intricate details, such as the delicate pattern on the bedspread, the folds of the girl's nightgown, and the intricate design of the window frame. The use of soft pastel colors adds to the gentle and calming tone of the illustration. The girl's room is filled with the promise of a new day, as the sunflowers in the vase seem to reach towards the window, inviting the sunlight into the room. The music notes scattered around the scene suggest that music is an integral part of the girl's morning routine, adding to the sense of joy and wonder that comes with the start of a new day. This beautiful illustration, with its intricate details and captivating storytelling, is a testament to the artistic talent of Kate Greenaway and the charm of the Victorian era. It invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of life and the beauty of nature as it greets each new day.
