Charming en grisaille oil of children playing and singing Ring a ring o’ roses. So very of it’s time (c1909) but all the more fascinating for being so. Just beautifully painted by Tarrant this is his original artwork for a commission by C. W. Faulkner & Co., London, to produce artwork for postcards – one of which is attached verso. Faulkner’s framed it, perhaps their standard practice, but that frame beyond economic repair. The label attached to the original frame read: ‘Original drawing no. 4700. Ring a’ ring o roses. P.Tarrant’ sadly it disintegrated upon removal.
