EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming illustration, dated 1938, captures the whimsical and carefree spirit of childhood as Dunderpate, a baker's boy, ascends the staircase to bed with a candle in hand. The silhouetted image of the staircase, with its intricately carved banister and ornate newel post, sets the stage for the enchanting scene. Dunderpate, dressed in his night clothes and wearing a cap, whistles happily as he climbs the steps, carrying a book under his arm. His contented expression and the warm glow of the candle suggest that bedtime is a time for relaxation and the anticipation of sweet dreams. The illustration, reminiscent of the 1930s, exudes a sense of nostalgia and innocence. The presence of the candle adds to the cozy and comforting atmosphere, while the silhouette of Mary, the mother, peeking from the open door at the top of the stairs, adds a touch of warmth and love. The image of Dunderpate, a dunce cap perched on the bedside table, suggests that despite his nickname, he is a bright and curious child, eager to learn. This delightful illustration, with its focus on education and the simple pleasures of childhood, is a beautiful reminder of the joys of growing up in the 1930s. The image is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the ability of art to transport us to another time and place.
