Book Description
Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-This book contains a historical context, where past events or the study and narration of these events are examined. The historical context refers to the circumstances and incidents surrounding an event. This context is formed by everything that, in some way, influences the event when it happens. A fact is always tied to its time: that is, to its characteristics. Therefore, when analyzing events that took place tens, hundreds or thousands of years ago, it is essential to know the historical context to understand them. Otherwise, we would be analyzing and judging what happened in a totally different era with a current perspective.Randolph Caldecott, March 22, 1846 - February 12, 1886, was an English artist and illustrator, born in Chester. The Caldecott Medal was named in his honor. He practiced his art mainly in book illustrations. His skills as an artist were quickly and generously recognized by the Royal Academy. Caldecott greatly influenced the illustration of children's books during the 19th century. Two books illustrated by him, valued at one shilling each, were published every Christmas for eight years.Caldecott also illustrated novels and tales of foreign travel, made humorous drawings depicting hunting and fashion life, drew cartoons and sketches of the Houses of Parliament inside and out,

Book Description
Who, again, had penetrated the hidden secret of that corroding jealousy which led the dog to bite the prim and impeccable personage who afterwards so fatally disagreed with him? And where else had the world been shewn the authentic academic presence,--the very "form and pressure,"--of "The Great Panjandrum Himself," "with the little round button at top;" or imagined the hurly-burly of those headlong, horn-blowing, cheek-bursting and hopelessly futile "Jovial Huntsmen"? Nor were these all, or even a tithe of the sportive surprises, the undreamed disclosures, of these captivating pages. Around and about them the artist has woven the most humourous ingenuities, the most freakish and frolicsome fancies; he has set them in the most inviting framework of town and country; he has enlisted in his service the most blithe and winsome figures of women and children, the most irresistible dogs and horses and birds. The open-air life of England, with all its freshness and breeziness, its pastoral seduction and its picturesque environment, is everywhere present in his work. He has the art, too, of being elegant without being effeminate, and of being tender without being mawkish. It was said of a great English novelist that his laugh clears the air; it may be said of these light-hearted pictures that their mirth clears not only the air but the imagination. No taint clings to them of morbid affectation or sickly sentiment: they are the genuine pictorial utterances of a manly, happy nature, delighting in beauty, delighting in innocent pleasure, and dowered as few English artists have been with the gifts of refinement and grace.
