EDITORS COMMENTS
Pinocchio: The Illustrated Tale of a Sick Puppet - 1911 This image transports us back to the early 20th century, as we find the beloved wooden boy, Pinocchio, lying ill in bed. Surrounded by an assortment of medical paraphernalia, he appears weak and forlorn, his once-bright eyes now dimmed with fatigue. The scene is set in the quaint, rustic interior of a humble cottage, where the warm glow of a lantern casts an ethereal light upon the room. Pinocchio's bed is adorned with a patchwork quilt, and a stack of books lies nearby, their pages dog-eared from countless hours of reading. The doctors have come, their concern evident on their faces as they assess the ailing puppet's condition. Among them are an owl, a crow, and a talking cricket – an unlikely trio of medical professionals. The anthropomorphic birds, with their wise and knowing expressions, lend an air of magic and wonder to the scene. The owl, with his large, round glasses and stethoscope, listens intently to Pinocchio's chest, while the crow, wearing a doctor's coat and holding a medical chart, jots down notes. The talking cricket, perched on the bedside table, offers words of encouragement and support, his tiny hands gently touching Pinocchio's forehead. Bottles of medicine and pills line the table, their labels bearing the names of various potions and elixirs. The diagnosis of Pinocchio's ailment remains a mystery, but the caring and dedicated team of doctors, along with the unwavering support of his animal friends, offer hope for a full recovery. This enchanting illustration, dated 1911, is a testament to the enduring power of storytelling and the human (or in this case, puppet) spirit. It serves as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, there is always hope and the promise of a brighter tomorrow.
