EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "A Old Person Who Ate Eighteen Rabbits and Turned Green," is a delightful illustration from an 1846 edition of Edward Lear's beloved collection of nonsensical poetry and limericks, "Nonsense Books for the Young and Old." The photograph, published by Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the whimsical world of Lear's imaginative verses. The illustration depicts a jovial, elderly gentleman, dressed in a Victorian-era suit and top hat, sitting contentedly in a garden setting with a plate of rabbits before him. The mischievous grin on his face suggests the pleasure he derived from his unusual culinary choice. However, the consequences of his habitual consumption of rabbits are evident in his vibrant green complexion. With a look of surprise and dismay, the old person has decided to abandon his rabbit-eating ways, as indicated by the empty plate and the forlorn bunny peeking out from the bushes. Lear's nonsense verse, which accompanied this image, reads: "There was an Old Person whose habits, induced him to feed upon rabbits; When he had eaten eighteen, he turned perfectly green, upon which he relinquished those habits." This lighthearted tale, filled with absurdity and humor, is a testament to Lear's ability to captivate the imagination and bring joy to readers of all ages. This historical photograph, with its rich details and intriguing narrative, offers a glimpse into the world of Edward Lear and his enduring legacy as a master of nonsense literature.
