EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the frosty embrace of an Edwardian winter, this enchanting image by renowned English illustrator Cecil Aldin, titled "One for Fido," portrays a delightful scene of a woman in a brilliant red dress, hat, and black cloak, contrasting dramatically against the pristine, snowy landscape. With a jovial expression and a playful spirit, she throws snowballs for her two pet spaniels, their ears perked up and eyes filled with anticipation. The joyous moment, reminiscent of a Christmas or seasonal scene, is a testament to the enduring bond between woman and her beloved pets. The snowballs fly through the crisp, winter air, adding to the sense of fun and lightheartedness in this charming illustration. This timeless image, originally published in the Illustrated London News in 1899, continues to evoke feelings of warmth, nostalgia, and the simple pleasures of a winter's day.
