More about this artwork

"Denslow's Mother Goose Pl 41," created by the renowned William Wallace Denslow in 1901, is a striking example of the artist's unique and colorful style. This whimsical illustration depicts a lively scene involving a character from the nursery rhymes of Mother Goose. The artwork features an elderly, spirited man, clad in a vibrant orange-and-red striped jacket, white knickers, and a large bowed tie, as he energetically attempts to control a whimsically designed rocking horse. The horse, decorated with polka dots and wearing a bridle and a playful expression, bounds out of the bounds of reality as depicted by the wooden rockers lifting off the ground.This piece is rich in motion and expression, with the man's white hair wildly flowing backward and the exaggerated features of the horse adding a sense of comic exaggeration. Denslow's illustration captures a moment of joyful chaos that is typical of the fantasy and humor found in children's rhymes and stories. His use of bold lines and clear, bright colors enhances the dynamic nature of the scene, making it a delightful visual treat that appeals to both young and old viewers alike.
