EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful illustration, taken from the pages of Cecil Aldin's beloved book "Jerry on the Exmoor," captures the playful spirit of country life in the 1930s. In the image, a young girl confidently rides her pony through a muddy patch, her laughter ringing out as she splashes a boy and his dog standing nearby. The boy, with a shocked expression, and his dog, covered in mud, can't help but laugh along with the mischievous rider. The scene exudes a sense of carefree joy, transporting us back to a simpler time. Published in 1932, "Jerry on the Exmoor" was a popular series of books by celebrated English illustrator Cecil Aldin. The books followed the adventures of a young boy named Jerry and his ponies on the Exmoor Moors in Somerset, England. Aldin's vivid and charming illustrations brought the stories to life, capturing the essence of rural life in the 1930s. This particular illustration showcases Aldin's exceptional talent for capturing the beauty and humor of everyday moments. The use of warm colors and intricate details in the ponies' coats and the girl's clothing add to the overall charm of the image. The muddy patch, a common obstacle for country riders, becomes an opportunity for a playful moment between the girl and the unsuspecting boy and his dog. As we gaze at this illustration, we can't help but be reminded of the simple pleasures of country life and the joy of a good-natured splash in the mud.
