EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Chickens" artist William Hippon Gadsby takes us back in time to the year 1891. The image, originally published in The Illustrated London News, showcases a delightful scene filled with rustic charm and youthful innocence. A group of children, mostly girls, are gathered around a collection of baskets overflowing with chickens. Their eyes sparkle with excitement as they interact with the feathered creatures before them. Some hold the birds gently in their hands while others observe from a distance, their curiosity piqued. The fashion of the era is on full display in this enchanting print. The young girls wear bonnets adorned with ribbons and lace, adding an air of elegance to their playful escapade. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children found joy in simple pleasures like spending time outdoors and connecting with nature. Gadsby's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate patterns on the children's clothing to each individual feather on the chickens' wings. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for days gone by. This charming piece from Bridgeman Images invites us to reflect upon our own childhood memories and cherish those moments that shaped who we are today.
