Little Jack Horner




El pequeño Jack Horner
Se sentó en el rincón,
a comer un pastel de Navidad;
Él metió su pulgar,
Y sacó una ciruela,
Y dijo: «¡Qué buen chico que soy!"

El juego tiene tres platos y dos fuentes

The set includes three little plates and two trays

La historia cuenta que Richard Whiting, Obispo de Glastonbury, un pueblo en Somerset, Inglaterra, temía que Enrique VII expropiara los monasterios católicos y mandó a su mayordomo, Jack Horner, con documentos de propiedad de algunos de ellos esperando que esto puediera evitarlo

The story goes that Richard Whiting, Bishop of Glastonbury, a town in Somerset, England, was afraid that Henry VII would expropiate Catholic monasteries and sent his steward, Jack Horner, with title deeds of some of them hoping it could help to avoid it



Pero Jack Horner, en lugar de entregar todos esos documentos -que llevaba escondidos en la tarta- a Enrique VIII, sacó el más valioso, el del monasterio del señorío de Mells, que sería la ciruela que sacó de la torta.

The deeds had been secreted in a pie but, instead of giving them to the King, Little Jack Horner was said to have stolen the deeds to the manor of Mells, the real "plum" of the twelve manors



Richard Whiting fue acusado de alta traición, por no adherir a la iglesia anglicana y ejecutado en 1539 y Jack Horner se habría convertido en proprietario del Señorío de Mells.
Acá, atrás de las bandejitas, la versión de Hilda Boswell

Richard Whiting was convicted of treason and was found guilty and executed in 1539 and the Manor of Mells became the property of Jack Horner.
Here, besides the little trays, Hilda Boswell's illustration



Pero hay otras versiones del pequeño Jack, tanto en vajilla como en ilustraciones

But there are more versions of Little Jack, in both children ware and storybooks


Este es de Margaret W. Tarrant

This is by Margaret W. Tarrant


Miremos un poco nás de cerca la taza

Now let's a close-up to the cup




y el plato (todo tuvo su emoción porque los encontré por separado...!)

and the saucer (I found them in different times, which makes it better indeed...!)



En esta otra taza y plato se lo ve caminando con la tarta en la mano y llevando el caballito de madera que tenía a su lado

Now another cup and plate where Little Jack is walking with his pie and pulling the rocking horse that stands by him in the previous one


Para las que les gusta la vajilla acá van las marcas, son ingleses los dos, el primer jueguito es Shell Ware

For those who love china, here the backstamps, both from England, the first by Shell Ware


y el de la taza Bristol

and the cup and saucer by Bristol


Los dejo con otro Jack, éste de Kate Greenaway

Before saying goodbye another Jack, this one by Kate Greenaway

  12. Silvina,
    Once again, I love your post! You must have an amazing collection of children's china! I never knew where the "Little Jack Horner" poem came from, and I am astonished that it began in my favorite town in Sommerset! Who knew! That is an interesting story.
    The cups and saucers are amazing, and so are the books you share.
    Hugs,
    Terri

  15. AWESOME post! I learned so much, too- never knew any of that.

    Funny when I always heard this nursery all I could think of is a boy sticking his hands in a pie and "What a rude boy am I" came to mind. Haha.

    This was fascinating and your pictures and china are wonderful, thanks so much for sharing! I love your collections!
