EDITORS COMMENTS
is an enchanting engraving by George Cruikshank that captures the joy and innocence of children playing with puppets on a bustling London street. Published in 1835, this delightful scene transports us back to a time when simple pleasures brought immense happiness. In this print, we witness the animated expressions on the faces of these young boys and girls as they interact with their marionette companions. The intricate details of each puppet's costume and delicate strings add to the whimsical atmosphere, evoking a sense of wonderment and fascination. The lively energy emanating from the children's playful dance moves creates an infectious rhythm that permeates through every corner of this artwork. As they twirl and leap alongside their wooden counterparts, it becomes evident that imagination knows no bounds for these little dancers.
