EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts a humorous scene from a classic Scottish nursery rhyme, "There was an Old Man of Dundee." The old man, dressed in traditional Scottish attire, is shown perched atop a tree with a book in hand. The serene scene is disrupted by a group of crows, causing the old man to suddenly rise and exclaim, "I'll return to Dundee!" The Old Man of Dundee is a beloved character from Scottish folklore, first published in print in 1846. The exact origins of the rhyme are unclear, but it has been passed down through generations, becoming a cherished part of Scottish history and culture. The old man's decision to return to Dundee upon being disturbed by the crows adds an element of whimsy and nonsense to the tale. The old man's love for books is evident in this print, as he is shown engrossed in a tome amidst the beauty of nature. The tree, adorned with autumn leaves, provides a picturesque backdrop for the scene. The crows, with their inquisitive and mischievous expressions, add a touch of playfulness to the image. This print is a delightful reminder of the rich history and folklore of Scotland. It is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the joy of reading, even in the most unexpected of places. Whether hung in a cozy study or displayed in a public space, this print is sure to bring a smile to the faces of all who see it.
