I was just drawn to it--something quite compelling to me about the gesture of this boy at top, hopping on one foot, holding the other leg aloft, and with the opposite hand raised--perhaps a game of hopscotch, or maybe he's about to hop over a candlestick. And then boy at bottom in what I take for a sailor-suit, pointing his dog toward something. The scale of the engraving makes it feel as though there was a specific context for creation\/distribution of it, but I'm not certain what. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e 2 5\/8\" x 3 5\/8\", black ink wood engraving on light cream wove paper, c. mid 1800s British I'd guess, very good condition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"critical EYE Finds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48845140754686,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0015\/5022\/1382\/files\/IMG_4987.png?v=1788273851","url":"https:\/\/www.criticaleyefinds.com\/products\/boy-boy-and-dog-sweet-earlier-19th-century-small-wood-engraving","provider":"critical EYE Finds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
