Vintage Fairy Tale, Bremen Town Musicians, Hauman Mug
Vintage illustration classic children's book fairy tale image, the Bremen Town Musicians by George and Doris Hauman.
In the story a donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster, all past their prime years in life and usefulness on their farms, were soon to be discarded by their masters. One by one they leave their homes and set out together. They decide to go to Bremen, known for its freedom, to live without owners and become musicians there.
On the way to Bremen, they see a light in a cottage; they look inside the window and see four robbers enjoying their ill-gotten gains. Standing on each others backs, they decide to perform for the men in hope of gaining food. Their 'music' has an unanticipated effect; the men run for their lives thinking a large monster is making that strange sound. The animals go into the house to eat a good meal, and settle in for the evening.

THE MUG HAS A CHARMING DESIGN BASED ON A GERMAN FAIRY TALE, ORIGINALLY COLLECTED BY THE BROTHERS GRIMM. THE ANIMALS HAVE LEFT THE FARMS WHERE THEY STRUGGLED FOR YEARS, NOW THEY'RE ON THE WAY TO BREMEN TO BECOME MUSICIANS. HUNGRY AND TIRED THEY STOP TO REST BY A WINDOW, THEY PEER INSIDE,, NOTICING THREE, LOUD MEN,, ROBBERS WITH THEIR LOOT, THE ANIMALS OUTSIDE DECIDE TO MAKE SCARY NOISES TO FRIGHTEN THE MEN. HEARING THE CACAPHONY THE ROBBERS FLEE AND THE ANIMALS MOVE IN! A HOME AT LAST. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME I'VE ORDERED THIS MUG, FIRST ONE WAS FOR MYSELF,, THIS SECOND ONE IS A GIFT FOR A FRIEND VISITING FROM GERMANY.. IT'S SPECIAL, THE MUG REPRE,SENTS A TIME, WHEN AS CHILDREN, WE BELIEVED IN FAIRY TALES,, LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY. The colors were lighter than expected.

SEVERAL WELL DRESSED ANIMALS ARE STANDING OUTSIDE A WINDOW LOOKING AT A FESTIVE EVENT GOING ON INSDE, WHY ARE THEY STANDING OUTSIDE, iIN THE COLD?
ARE THEY DISAPPOINTED AT NOT HAVING BEEN INVITED? DO THEY HAVE A FRIEND INSIDE WHO'S
PLAYING AN INSTRUMENT? ARE THEY HOMELESS PASSERBY, HUNGRY AND HOPING TO GET LEFTOVERS OR SOM SPARE CHANGE, WHO ARE THESE EAVESDROPPERS? The scene is well done and charming. The shortcoming is that the colors are weak, and timid.

This is a gorgeous mug that makes me feel as though I am outdoors in my Hosta garden, on a beautiful day in Spring! The printing is lovely and sharp just like my painting. I shall be displaying this mug at an exhibition soon!
