When scholars say that Randolph Caldecott helped invent modern picture books for children, it’s due to scenes like this. He treated the landscape beautifully & calmly —though it was “only” a children’s book. I love his work. This is from “Sing a Song for Sixpence” (1880)

Please take some time to go back and marvel over the incredible works of Jerry Pinkney, the Caldecott-winning illustrator, who died yesterday at age 81. He was a beautiful man whose illustrations were equally as beautiful. 🥲
