EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "When Teddy fell off he said it was my fault" captures a heartwarming moment of childhood innocence and friendship. Created by John Hassall, this colour litho artwork depicts a scene from the book "Our Diary of Teddy and Me" illustrated by the artist in the 1940s. In the image, we see a young boy and girl enjoying their holiday adventure in the countryside. They are swinging on an old tree swing, with joyous expressions on their faces. However, something unexpected has happened – Teddy, the beloved stuffed bear, has fallen off. The caption suggests that when Teddy tumbled to the ground, he blamed it on his young owner. This innocent gesture highlights how children often take responsibility for things beyond their control and teaches us about empathy and understanding. Hassall's illustration beautifully captures not only the physical setting but also conveys emotions such as happiness and cheerfulness through vibrant colors and lively brushstrokes. The lush greenery surrounding them adds to the sense of freedom and exploration that comes with being outdoors. This print serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when children found joy in simple activities like swinging on trees. It evokes feelings of warmth, nostalgia, and reminds us of our own cherished childhood memories spent with our favorite toys or companions.
