EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic character of Old King Cole, brought to life in a stunning drawing by L. Leslie Brooke for an 1898 edition of Mother Goose nursery rhymes. The late 19th-century illustration exudes a sense of regality and charm, as Old King Cole sits upon his ornate throne adorned with a majestic crown. Clad in a flowing robe, he holds a pipe in one hand while elegantly playing the violin with the other, showcasing his multifaceted talents. The intricate details captured by Brooke's skilled hand draw us into this enchanting scene from turn-of-the-century literature. The page on which the drawing is featured adds to its vintage allure, transporting us back to a time when nursery rhymes were cherished bedtime stories. Old King Cole himself appears larger than life, commanding attention with his presence and royal demeanor. His wise gaze seems to hold secrets untold as he presides over his kingdom with grace and authority. This timeless depiction of Old King Cole serves as both an homage to classic children's literature and a testament to the artistic talent that thrived during this era. Whether displayed in a child's bedroom or an art lover's collection, this print invites viewers into the magical world of Mother Goose nursery rhymes while celebrating the beauty of early 20th-century illustration.
