EDITORS COMMENTS
- a charming and humorous turn-of-the-century photograph capturing the playful antics of two dogs in the late Victorian era. The image, dated 1899, depicts an old lady's shoe lying in pieces between two inquisitive and mischievous dogs. Their ears perked up, they look at the viewer with a guilty yet innocent expression, as if daring us to scold them for their naughty deed. The scene is set in a rustic farmyard, with a gate leading to a lush green field in the background. The old lady, likely out for a stroll, seems to have been momentarily distracted, leaving her shoe unattended. The dogs, unable to resist the temptation, managed to rip the shoe apart between them, leaving it in shambles. This photograph is a delightful reminder of the simple joys and amusements of rural life in the 1890s. The rhyme "Cock-a-doodle-doo, My dame has lost her shoe" adds a whimsical touch to the image, making it a delightful addition to any collection of historical photographs or nursery rhyme-themed decor. The destruction wrought by the dogs, while causing inconvenience to the old lady, adds a lighthearted and entertaining element to the scene. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the bond between humans and their pets, as well as the playful nature of animals. It also provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the daily life and amusements of the late Victorian era.
