Where Are You Going, My Pretty Maid?
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that transports us back in time to the early 20th century. The image, taken by an unknown photographer, depicts a young boy and girl engaged in a playful interaction on a bustling city street. The girl, dressed in a traditional nursery rhyme-inspired outfit complete with a white blouse, red pinafore, and black clogs, looks over her shoulder at the inquisitive boy who calls out to her with a mischievous grin. The boy, wearing a simple shirt and trousers, clutches a small object in his hand, perhaps a toy or a flower, as he tries to entice the girl with his question. The backdrop of the photograph is a lively urban scene, with buildings and people visible in the distance. The cobblestone street, lined with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians, adds to the sense of history and nostalgia. The title of the photograph is derived from the classic English nursery rhyme, "Where Are You Going, My Pretty Maid?" which has been passed down through generations. The rhyme, which dates back to the 18th century, tells the story of a boy who encounters a pretty maid and asks her where she is going, to which she replies that she is going to the well to draw water. The boy then asks if he may come along, but she refuses, leaving him to ponder her mysterious intentions. This photograph is a delightful reminder of a simpler time, when children's games and nursery rhymes held a special place in the hearts and minds of people. It invites us to imagine the stories and adventures that might have unfolded between the boy and the girl on that fateful day on the city street. The image is a treasure from the Peter & Dawn Cope Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, and a must-see for anyone with an interest in history, photography, or the innocence of childhood.
