EDITORS COMMENTS
Once I Saw a Little Bird" is a charming and nostalgic illustration from a Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes book published by Raphael Tuck in 1912. The illustration, created by the talented British artist Mabel Lucie Attwell, depicts a young girl sitting on a grassy bank with a book in her lap. She looks up from her reading, her eyes wide with wonder and delight, as she observes a small bird perched on a nearby branch. The bird, with its bright orange beak and round, curious eyes, gazes back at the girl, seemingly as intrigued by her as she is by him. The scene is filled with the simple joys of childhood, as the girl's dress is adorned with flowers and her hair is tied up in two neat bows. The sun shines down on the idyllic setting, casting a warm, golden glow over the scene. The intricate details of Attwell's illustration are truly captivating, from the delicate folds of the girl's dress to the delicate petals of the flowers that surround her. This beautiful illustration is a testament to the enduring appeal of Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes and the magic they hold for generations of children. The image of the little bird and the young girl is a reminder of the simple pleasures of nature and the joy of discovery that can be found in the pages of a beloved children's book. Mabel Lucie Attwell was a prolific and beloved British artist, known for her whimsical and charming illustrations. She created over 1,000 images during her career, many of which were published by Raphael Tuck and Company. Her work continues to be cherished by collectors and admirers of all ages, and this illustration from "Once I Saw a Little Bird" is a prime example of her timeless talent.
