EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting engraving from the 19th century, we are transported to a time when children's games and hobbies were simple yet filled with wonder. The image captures a young child, eyes wide with anticipation, holding up an owl for sale. With innocence and charm, the child asks, "Please, Sir, will you buy an owl?". The artwork is part of a collection titled "Indoor Games and Recreations" edited by G. A. Hutchison in 1891. It beautifully depicts the joy that can be found in childhood pastimes. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate lines that bring life to both the child and their feathered companion. The owl itself becomes more than just an object for sale; it symbolizes curiosity and imagination - qualities often associated with children. Its presence adds a touch of whimsy to the scene as it perches on the child's outstretched hand. This print serves as a reminder of simpler times when play was cherished above all else. It invites us to embrace our inner child and appreciate the magic found in everyday moments. So let us pause for a moment like this little one did long ago: captivated by possibilities and eager to share them with others who might also find joy in owning an owl or embarking on new adventures together.
