The Legend of Old Chromer
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a whimsical moment in the life of a young and active sketcher, as depicted by renowned artist Randolph Caldecott. In this humorous scene, we are transported to a remote village where the legend of Old Chromer unfolds. The story revolves around a brave boy named Miss Jones, who is known for his daring adventures on land and sea. Accompanied by boatmen and fellow artists with easels in hand, Miss Jones sets out on an exciting journey aboard their boats. Little did they know that their peaceful day of bathing would soon take an unexpected turn. As fate would have it, they accidentally venture into the territory of Old Chromer - a legendary figure christened by locals due to his savage reputation. However, instead of meeting their demise at the hands (or claws) of Old Chromer, our intrepid heroes find themselves rescued from danger. Years later, word spreads across the world about this incredible rescue mission led by Miss Jones. The legend becomes famous far beyond its origins in Baden, Germany. It symbolizes not only bravery but also the power of friendship and teamwork. This delightful chromolitho print transports us back to those thrilling moments when young boys embraced adventure without hesitation or fear. It reminds us that even in seemingly ordinary activities like swimming or boating lies the potential for extraordinary tales that capture our imagination and inspire generations to come.
