Sobre a obra
The object is to place before children such pictures as are well drawn and well coloured and thus training the eye in infancy to discriminate and enjoy artistic work.
Liberty Bazaar 1898
This nursery frieze was produced by illustrator and poster designer John Hassall for Liberty’s. The designs were part of a wider collaboration between John Hassall and fellow artist Cecil Aldin, ‘Art for the Nursery’, aimed at making the appearance of children's rooms more attractive. This resulted in an exhibition at The Fine Art Society in 1900, Pictures for Children. These friezes were also displayed at the Leighton House centenary John Hassall exhibition in 1968. They were recently on display again at The Fine Art Society as part of the exhibition, British Murals & Decorative Painting, 1910-1970.

These original designs would have been printed as lithographs by Jellico and Co. to be fixed directly to the walls of children's nurseries.
