EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming chromolitho print from the 19th century, we are transported to a serene lakeside scene in Victorian Britain. A young girl, dressed in her finest attire, stands by the railings of a park pond. Her eyes sparkle with curiosity as she leans towards an adjutant bird perched nearby. Eager to learn more about this magnificent creature, she bravely asks for its name. The image captures the innocence and vulnerability of childhood as well as the boundless wonder that children possess. The girl's genuine interest in nature is evident as she engages with the majestic stork-like bird before her. It is a testament to the timeless connection between humans and animals. This delightful illustration was originally featured in The Prize for Girls and Boys, a popular publication of its time aimed at educating and entertaining young readers. Its inclusion in private collections speaks to its enduring appeal and artistic merit. As we admire this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the importance of fostering curiosity and nurturing our innate sense of wonderment. This enchanting encounter between a young girl and an adjutant bird serves as a gentle reminder that there is always something new to discover if we approach life with open hearts and minds.
