The Little Dog Laughed to See Such Sport
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and whimsical colour litho print by John Hassall that captures the essence of childhood joy and imagination. The image, part of Blackies Popular Nursery Rhymes collection from around 1930, depicts a delightful scene inspired by the famous nursery rhyme "Hey Diddle Diddle". In this enchanting artwork, we see a mischievous little dog laughing heartily as he witnesses an amusing spectacle unfold before him. A cat plays the fiddle while balancing precariously on one paw atop a dish and spoon. Meanwhile, in the background, a cow jumps gracefully over the moon. Hassall's skillful use of vibrant colours brings this playful scene to life, evoking feelings of warmth and nostalgia. The intricate details in each character's expression add depth to their personalities, making them relatable figures for both children and adults alike. This print serves as a reminder of the power of nursery rhymes in sparking our imaginations during our formative years. It invites us to revisit cherished memories from childhood when simple verses could transport us into fantastical worlds filled with laughter and wonder. Whether displayed in a child's bedroom or adorning the walls of any art lover's home, "The Little Dog Laughed to See Such Sport" is sure to bring smiles and evoke fond memories for all who encounter it.
