EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the famous character of the Old Person of Cheadle, as penned by Edward Lear in his beloved collection of nonsense verse, "A Book of Nonsense," published in 1846. The image shows the old man, with a mischievous grin, being led by a stern beadle and placed in the stocks in the town square of Cheadle. The inscription above the scene reads, "Who was put in the stocks by the beadle, For stealing some pigs, some coats, and some wigs, That horrible person of Cheadle." The Old Person of Cheadle is a recurring character in Lear's works, and this particular verse is one of the most well-known from his collection. The whimsical and nonsensical nature of the verse, combined with the charming illustration, has delighted readers for generations. Lear's "A Book of Nonsense" was a groundbreaking work in the history of children's literature, and its influence can still be seen in modern children's books and media. The Old Person of Cheadle, with his penchant for thievery and his place in the stocks, remains a beloved and enduring character from this classic work. This print, with its rich history and intriguing story, is a must-have for any collector of antique literature, children's books, or Edward Lear memorabilia. The intricate details of the illustration and the high-quality print make it a beautiful addition to any home or office, and a fascinating conversation starter for visitors.
