EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Itinerant vegetable seller reunited with his faithful ass in London" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. This remarkable scene captures a heartwarming incident that unfolded when an itinerant vegetable seller was finally reunited with his loyal donkey after a chaotic chase through the city. As depicted in this handcoloured copperplate engraving, the ass is seen standing proudly, carrying two baskets filled to the brim with fresh produce. The donkey's escape had caused quite a commotion, attracting over 50 people who joined in pursuit of the runaway animal. This anecdote, recounted by Swan and featured in John Church's Cabinet of Quadrupeds, showcases not only the resilience and loyalty of these beasts of burden but also highlights their vital role as companions and helpers to their human counterparts. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this momentous occasion against a backdrop illuminated by gaslights and streetlights. Reverend Thomas Smith's The Naturalists Cabinet provides further context for this fascinating glimpse into animal history. Through this exquisite scientific illustration, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary event that reminds us of the deep bond between humans and animals. This artwork from Bridgeman Images serves as a testament to both our shared history and our enduring connection with nature.
