There are many prints by Jessie Willcox Smith, and her prints in this collection of prints highlight nursery rhymes by Mother Goose. There are literally hundreds of such poems, but she chose only a dozen to do in color.
These prints are almost all recognizable as prints of classic children’s nursery rhymes. All are suitable for children’s rooms with such prints as Ring-a-ring-a Roses, and baby’s nursery especially could accommodate Hush-a-bye Baby. The prints are done in clear colors which are bright and cheerful. And of course the children and animals are realistic and handsome.
All of these prints have the rhyme that is illustrated at the bottom of the print in the white border. If you didn’t want the rhyme to show, the matting can be cut closer to the print. It is up to you.
The Little Mother Goose was illustrated by Jessie Willcox Smith, with a copyright of 1918. The book was printed by Dodd, Mead & Company, NY.
