EDITORS COMMENTS
Cecil Aldin's 'Micky and Cracker' (1927): A Timeless Tale of Canine Companionship and Boredom Step back in time to the roaring twenties with this delightful illustration by renowned English artist Cecil Aldin. In this charming scene, we find ourselves in the cozy study of an unnamed gentleman, surrounded by the warmth of antique furnishings and the comforting aroma of old books. The room is filled with an air of quiet contemplation, as our subject leans back in his chair, lost in the pages of a tome. But what's this? The tranquility is suddenly disrupted as the gentleman's attention is drawn away from his reading material. Two inquisitive canine faces peer over the edge of the desk, their eyes fixed on the storyteller with undivided interest. Micky, the Irish Wolfhound, and Cracker, the Bull Terrier, are the epitome of canine loyalty and friendship. Their eager expressions and wagging tails betray their excitement for the tale being shared. However, as the man continues to drone on about the monkey in his story, Micky and Cracker begin to lose interest. The once-engaged expressions on their faces now turn to boredom and disinterest. Micky's head droops, his eyes heavy with yawns, while Cracker's ears flop forward, his gaze glazing over. The scene is a testament to the age-old struggle of trying to keep our pets entertained and engaged, even when we think they should be captivated by our stories. This illustration, created by Cecil Aldin in 1927, is a beautiful reminder of the special bond between humans and their pets, as well as the occasional challenges that come with it. The timeless nature of the image makes it a must-have for any dog lover's collection, transporting us back to a simpler time and reminding us of the joy and companionship that our furry friends bring into our lives.
