EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, published in 1846, depicts the legendary character of The Old Person of Basing, a figure of historical nonsense and lore. The Old Person of Basing is renowned for his remarkable presence of mind and quick thinking, as encapsulated in the popular rhyme that bears his name. In this print, we see the Old Person, with a mischievous glint in his eye, atop a galloping steed. The Old Person had purchased this steed and, with his wits about him, rode it at full speed to outrun the persistent people of Basing, who sought to apprehend him for reasons unknown. The Old Person of Basing is a beloved character in English folklore, and this print offers a glimpse into the rich history and whimsy of the tales that surround him. The Old Person's daring escape on horseback is a testament to his cunning and resourcefulness, and the image captures the spirit of adventure and mischief that defines this enduring character. The print, published in the mid-19th century, is a beautiful example of the illustrative art of the time. The intricate details of the Old Person's clothing, the textured background, and the dynamic pose of the rider all contribute to the vibrant and engaging scene. Whether you are a history buff, a folklore enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates a good story, this print is sure to delight and inspire. It offers a glimpse into the past, a moment of whimsy, and a reminder of the power of a good tale well told.
