More about this artwork

This whimsical illustration by Leonard Leslie Brooke, titled "And Jill Came Tumbling After," is a charming depiction inspired by the traditional nursery rhyme "Jack and Jill." Painted in 1922, Brooke's artistry brings to life a moment of playful misfortune in a pastoral setting.In this delightful scene, we see Jill depicted in mid-tumble down a hill, her expression a mixture of surprise and dismay. Her hair and dress flutter around her as she falls towards a small stream, enhancing the sense of motion. Close to her, a bucket and a little teddy bear also find themselves caught in the midst of this unexpected journey downhill.The background is beautifully rendered in soft, pastel hues, showing a picturesque landscape of rolling hills dotted with trees and a solitary windmill. This serene backdrop contrasts sharply with the dynamic action of Jill’s fall, providing a gentle reminder of the tranquility typically associated with nature.Leonard Leslie Brooke was known for his ability to capture both the innocence and the antics of childhood in his works, and "And Jill Came Tumbling After" is a perfect example of his skillful blend of storytelling and artistry.
