EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical lithograph, titled "Letter H, Hefty Housewife Heartlessly Harrying Her Hapless Henpecked Husband" captures a humorous scene from the past. Created by William Hammond in 1913, this illustration is part of the book "Alliterative Anomalies for Infants and Invalids" written by John Cowie. In this comical image, we see a larger-than-life housewife with an imposing presence relentlessly tormenting her meek and submissive husband. The exaggerated expressions on their faces convey the absurdity of the situation, while the vivid colors add to its playful nature. The artist's clever use of alliteration in both the title and content adds another layer of amusement to this piece. It showcases how words starting with 'H' are humorously woven together to create an entertaining narrative. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers historical insight into children's literature from over a century ago.

With its combination of artistry, humor, history, and alphabet exploration, this lithograph is sure to bring joy to anyone who encounters it.
