EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the classic narrative of 'The Old Person of Hurst' from Edward Lear's collection of nonsensical poetry, first published in 1846. The image showcases a historical figure, identified as the 'globular Person of Hurst,' who defies societal expectations with his unusual behavior. Dressed in a Victorian-era suit and top hat, this rotund character is depicted sitting on a bench, a bottle in hand, with a mischievous grin on his face. The caption above reads, 'He drank when he was not athirst; When they said, You'll grow fatter, he answered, What matter?' Lear's whimsical verse challenges the notion of conformity and the pressure to fit into societal norms. The Old Person of Hurst's unapologetic disregard for the opinions of others is a testament to his individuality and independence. This print, with its charming illustration and thought-provoking verse, invites us to ponder the importance of embracing our unique qualities and resisting the urge to conform. The print is a beautiful example of the rich history of nonsense literature, which gained popularity in the 19th century. Lear's work, along with that of other notable nonsense writers such as Lewis Carroll and Rudyard Kipling, continues to captivate audiences of all ages with its playful language, imaginative characters, and unexpected twists. This print is a treasure for anyone interested in the history of literature, nonsense poetry, or simply the joy of a good story well told.
