EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "E: E for the Eggs, which we find in the nest; They still feel quite warm, from the hen's downy breast" takes us back to a simpler time in rural America. The illustration, created by J. Howard around 1870, is part of a collection called "Aunt Louisa's wee wee stories: Country Alphabet". The image showcases a charming countryside scene with a stable block and barn in the background. In the foreground, we see a child holding a basket filled with freshly laid eggs. The vibrant colors of the chromolithography printing bring life to this snapshot of farm life.
