EDITORS COMMENTS
In this whimsical lithograph by Edward Lear, we are introduced to a young lady whose nose seems to have a mind of its own. With each passing day, her nose prospers and grows, defying all expectations. This humorous illustration is taken from the book "More Nonsense" where Lear's witty limericks come to life through his delightful drawings. The image captures the essence of Lear's playful verse and showcases his talent for combining humor with artistic skill. The young lady's exaggeratedly long nose serves as a visual punchline, inviting laughter and amusement from viewers. Lear was known for his nonsense poetry and nonsensical illustrations that brought joy to readers of all ages. His unique style has made him an enduring figure in English literature, celebrated for his ability to create light-hearted entertainment through clever wordplay and imaginative imagery. This charming engraving transports us into the world of absurdity and invites us to embrace the silliness that lies within us all. It reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously but instead find delight in life's quirks and unexpected surprises. With its timeless appeal, this print continues to bring smiles and laughter even after more than a century since its creation. It stands as a testament to Lear's enduring legacy as one of the masters of literary nonsense.
