EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print titled "Q: Q stands for the Quince I have plucked from a tree, To flavor the tart Mary's making for me" transports us back in time to a charming countryside scene. The illustration, created by J. Howard and published around 1870, is part of "Aunt Louisa's wee wee stories": Country Alphabet collection. Measuring 27.5 x 23.5 cm, this chromolithography printing showcases the beauty of nature and simplicity of rural life during that era. The image features a delightful young child holding a freshly picked quince fruit while standing amidst lush greenery and vibrant flowers. The handwritten dedication on the print dates back to 1875, adding an extra layer of historical significance to this piece. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of storytelling through generations. Accompanied by Laura Jewry Valentine's poetic text, this alphabet primer captures the innocence and curiosity of childhood in its exploration of letters and animals found in the countryside setting. In this particular illustration, we see a playful kitten curiously observing as Mary prepares a delicious tart using the quince fruit. This evocative print not only celebrates American rural life but also highlights our connection with nature and traditional values that resonate even today. Its warm colors and intricate details make it an enchanting addition to any art collection or decor space.
