EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 16th-century woodcut print titled "Children's Games: The Rattle, the Mill" we are transported back in time to witness the joy and innocence of childhood play. A group of young boys can be seen engaging in various traditional games, their laughter and excitement filling the air. The central focus of the image is a boy holding a rattle, his face lit up with delight as he shakes it vigorously. The rattle symbolizes one of many toys that have entertained children for generations. Nearby, another child operates a mill toy, spinning its wheel with fascination. These simple yet enchanting pastimes remind us of the timeless nature of play and how it has always been an integral part of childhood. But what truly captures our attention is the presence of bubbles floating through the scene. Children eagerly reach out to catch them on cushions, their eyes wide with wonderment. Bubbles represent pure magic and evoke feelings of awe and curiosity even today. This woodcut print serves as a reminder that no matter how much time passes or how society changes, children will always find joy in playful activities that spark their imagination. It also highlights the importance of preserving these cherished traditions that bring happiness to young hearts across generations.
