Child's walker. Chodzik.


This is a part of  commission you saw in my last post.

I just didn't want to mix it in the-under -the-sign-of-chamber-pot miniatures. ;)

The walker is based on the picture from Elblag Book of Meadow(or Meadow's Book) of 1421 year.


I couldn't find any link to this book in English, so sorry, anyway the book is mostly about plants and farmers works in 15th century.



This is my first miniature that has got wheels and they all are working. ;)
Hope you will like my little walker.

Oh, I was to write about it from sometime: do you remember my shoe model?
Her photo, together with 7 other beautiful dolls) has been chosen for summer header of Minidollist group!! :)


***

Ostatnia część zamówienia, o którym mogliście poczytać w moim ostatnim poście. Nie chciałam go mieszać do "nocników", choć dotyczy małych dzieci. ;)

Chodzik wzorowany jest na obrazku z Elbląskiej Księgi Łąkowej z 1421 roku.

To moja pierwsza miniatura na kołach, które w dodatku się kręcą. ;)

A na koniec się pochwalę: pamiętacie moją modelkę butów? Jej zdjęcie, wraz z 7 zdjęciami lalek innych artystów trafiło na letni banner Minidolllist. :)

Another piece of fantastic miniature work - your customer will be very happy with it. And it's totally interesting to have a peek into the past... it's amazing to imagine children already used this so many centuries ago. And congratulations - they made a good choice taking your lovely shoe model for their header!

Hugs
Birgit

P.S.: Don't worry... you're not too late - there's still a lot of work to do on Flower Cottage... ;O)

Congratz on being featured.I knew that shoe model will be a hit. What's her name?

And please let your parents know that I am constantly thinking of them. Just like I was when I was writing my last post and the weeks before and the months before. My package to you is for them too.
