EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming 1937 illustration from Mary Evans Prints Online, we find ourselves in the midst of an unexpected moment between a playful Pekingese dog named Koko and a unsuspecting policeman. The silhouetted scene, set against the backdrop of the 1930s, captures the whimsy and innocence of childhood as Koko, with a mischievous glint in her eyes, manages to trip up the policeman on duty. The officer, taken by surprise, is shown in profile as his helmet flies off, landing with a soft thud on the ground. The breed of dog, with its distinctive flat-faced profile and curled tail, is identified as a Pekingese or Pekinese in the accompanying text. Koko, with her small stature and fluffy coat, is the epitome of the breed's charming and affectionate nature. The illustration also features a young girl, Mary, and her mother, Mrs. Baker, who are watching the scene unfold with amusement. The design of the illustration is reminiscent of the 1930s, with its clean lines and simple shapes. The use of a silhouette adds a sense of timelessness to the image, allowing the viewer to focus on the story being told rather than the details of the artwork itself. The scene is further enhanced by the addition of a book and a crust of bread, suggesting that this moment of playfulness has interrupted a quiet afternoon spent reading or enjoying a simple meal. This delightful illustration is a reminder of the joys and surprises that can come from the most unexpected of encounters, and the enduring bond between children and their beloved pets.
