The Pigs Came Grunting Over the Sand
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph by George Sheringham that transports us to a whimsical moment in Canadian folklore. This enchanting print, part of the Private Collection, beautifully illustrates a scene from Cyrus Macmillan's renowned book "Canadian Wonder Tales" published in 1918. In this vivid artwork, we witness a group of pigs joyfully making their way across the sandy landscape. The artist's attention to detail and use of vibrant colours bring life to each grunting pig as they leave their footprints on the golden sand. Sheringham masterfully captures the essence of this magical tale, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in its fantastical world. Macmillan's collection of stories celebrates Canada's rich history and cultural heritage. Through his words and Sheringham's artistry, we are transported back in time to an era when such tales were passed down through generations. This print serves as a visual reminder of our connection to traditional storytelling and how it shapes our understanding of North American history. "The Pigs Came Grunting Over the Sand" not only showcases Sheringham's artistic prowess but also highlights the importance of preserving folklore for future generations. It reminds us that even seemingly ordinary creatures like pigs can play significant roles within narratives that shape our collective identity as Canadians. This image from Bridgeman Images invites us into a world where imagination knows no bounds – where pigs become protagonists and sandy shores transform into portals leading us towards wonderment
