EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the whimsical scene of "The Fox jumping over the parsons gate" as depicted by renowned artist Randolph Caldecott in 1883. The image is taken from his book, "The Fox jumps over the Parsons Gate" published by Frederick Warne in London during that time. Set against a lush garden backdrop, a vibrant fox with fiery red fur leaps gracefully over an ornate iron gate. In this enchanting moment frozen in time, we witness the surprise on the faces of two women who stand nearby. One can only imagine their astonishment at witnessing such an extraordinary sight. Caldecott's mastery shines through in his use of color and detail, bringing this charming nursery rhyme to life for readers and art enthusiasts alike. His ability to capture movement and emotion within a single frame is truly remarkable. As we delve into this 19th-century masterpiece, we are transported back to Victorian Britain - a time when literature and art were intertwined with daily life. This print serves as a testament to Caldecott's enduring legacy as one of Britain's most celebrated illustrators. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within the pages of a treasured book collection, this image will continue to delight viewers for generations to come.
