EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "To pay his due to Mr. Lustucur, Mother Michel offers him her hand and her heart" created by Lorentz Froelich in 1880, we are transported into a whimsical world of music and childhood nostalgia. The image is part of the illustrious Hetzel Collection, housed in the Library of Mademoiselle Lili and her cousin Lucien. The scene depicts Mother Michel, a beloved character from French nursery rhymes, extending both her hand and heart as a gesture of gratitude towards Mr. Lustucur. This moment is captured from verse 8 of "Songs and rounds from childhood" published by Pierre-Jules Hetzel in Paris during the late 19th century. With delicate precision, Froelich's intricate illustrations bring this enchanting tale to life. The black-and-white composition exudes a sense of tradition while evoking memories of cherished ballads and serenades that have been passed down through generations. This print not only showcases the artistry behind engraving but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of music in shaping our childhood experiences. It invites us to delve into the magical realm where nursery rhymes come alive, reminding us of the joyous melodies that once filled our hearts. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that even in today's fast-paced world, there is still beauty to be found in preserving customs and traditions that connect us all across time and continents.
