EDITORS COMMENTS
A Whimsical Encounter: The Old Man and the Horrible Cow, 1846 This image, published in 1846, presents a humorous and nostalgic scene of an old man attempting to escape from a menacing cow. The man, with a determined yet weary expression, sits atop a stile, a traditional farm fence, and forces a smile to soften the heart of the beast below. The cow, with its large, expressive eyes and exaggerated features, seems to loom ominously, ready to charge. This charming print is an excellent example of the nonsense tradition in literature and visual art, popularized by authors such as Edward Lear and Lewis Carroll. The phrase "The Old Man who said, how shall I flee from that horrible cow?" is reminiscent of Lear's famous limericks and nonsense verses, which continue to delight readers and audiences today. The historical context of this print is rooted in rural life and the agricultural traditions of the 19th century. The image of the old man and the cow may have been inspired by the common farm experience of dealing with cattle, as well as the folklore and superstitions surrounding these animals. Despite its playful and lighthearted nature, this print also reflects the human condition of facing fears and finding ways to cope with adversity. The old man's decision to sit on the stile and smile, rather than fleeing in terror, demonstrates his resilience and resourcefulness. This print serves as a reminder that even in the face of the seemingly impossible, a sense of humor and a positive attitude can help us overcome our fears and find joy in the unexpected. This print is a delightful addition to any collection of historical, literary, or whimsical art, and is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who encounters it.
