1881 Garden Greenaway Katharine Mary Mother Goose Nursery Rhyme
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming black and white illustration, titled "Mary, Mary, quite contrary" was drawn by the talented artist Kate Greenaway in 1881. The artwork is part of an edition of Mother Goose, a beloved collection of nursery rhymes. In this delightful scene, we see a young girl named Mary standing in a beautiful garden. She is dressed in traditional Victorian clothing with a bonnet adorning her head. Mary appears to be tending to her garden with great care and attention. The intricate details of the drawing showcase Greenaway's skill as an illustrator. The flowers surrounding Mary are meticulously rendered, each petal and leaf coming to life on paper. It seems as though the plants respond to Mary's nurturing touch, thriving under her watchful eye. As we gaze at this enchanting image, we can almost hear the familiar rhyme echoing through our minds: "Mary, Mary, quite contrary". This timeless nursery rhyme has been passed down through generations and continues to captivate children and adults alike. Kate Greenaway's illustration captures the innocence and beauty of childhood while celebrating nature's wonders. It serves as a reminder that even in simpler times like those depicted in Mother Goose tales from long ago; there is magic all around us waiting to be discovered - just like little Mary did in her lovely garden.
