EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Illustration for 'Alphabet of good examples'", takes us back to the late 19th century. Created by Henri Gray (1858-1924) under his alias Henri Boulanger, this artwork measures 18.5x16.2 cm and is part of a private collection. The image showcases the letter B, with various objects and scenes that represent words beginning with this letter. A bust, boot, ball, brush, and even multiple balls are intricately engraved in great detail. The composition exudes a sense of playfulness as it combines different elements into one cohesive design. Published by Jules Levy around 1890 as part of an "alphabet of good examples" each illustration was accompanied by poems written by Mrs. P. Boulanger. The engravings were skillfully printed by Ch. Gillot in Paris. As we explore this enchanting print further, we discover plush animals scattered throughout the scene alongside candles illuminating the surroundings with their warm glow. A bottle sits nearby while a child plays with toys in the background—a true representation of childhood innocence. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the intricate candlestick holder to the delicate features on each object depicted within this composition—nothing has been overlooked. This evocative piece transports us back to a time when imagination thrived through games and storytelling—an era where generosity and curiosity shaped young minds during their formative years. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, this engraving serves as both an educational tool for learning letters and an exquisite work of art that captures the essence of late 19th-century France—a testament to Gray's talent as an illustrator.
