Victorian children in the woods
Two Victorian children in a wood. The little girl is lying down, possibly asleep, and the boy is looking at an older boy who has appeared from behind a tree - perhaps he wants to help them in case they are lost in the wood. Illustration by Walter Crane from Us - An Old Fashioned Storya by Mrs Molesworth, published by Macmillan & Co Ltd, London, in 1899

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Walter Crane, we are transported back to the enchanting world of Victorian children exploring the woods. The scene unfolds with two young siblings, a little girl and her brother, surrounded by towering trees and dappled sunlight filtering through the foliage. The girl lies peacefully on the ground, her delicate form suggesting she may have drifted into a sweet slumber amidst nature's embrace. Meanwhile, her attentive brother stands nearby, his gaze fixed upon an older boy who has emerged from behind a tree. With curiosity in his eyes and concern etched upon his face, it seems as though he wonders if this mysterious figure could offer assistance should they find themselves lost in this vast woodland. Walter Crane's exquisite illustration captures not only the innocence of childhood but also hints at themes of adventure and protection. The artist masterfully employs 19th-century style techniques to bring life to these characters; their clothing adorned with intricate details that reflect the fashion of their time. This evocative piece is taken from "Us - An Old Fashioned Story" by Mrs Molesworth and was published by Macmillan & Co Ltd in London during 1899. It serves as a timeless reminder of our enduring fascination with both history and imagination – an invitation for viewers to step into another era where dreams intertwine with reality among whispering leaves and hidden paths.
