"The Cubies' ABC" by Mary Chase Mills Lyall is a whimsical illustrated alphabet book written in the early 20th century. This playful work humorously explores the world of Cubism and modern art, introducing readers to various concepts and artists within the movement. Intended for a general audience, the book combines art education with an entertaining narrative style that critiques and engages with contemporary artistic trends. In this book, each letter of the alphabet is paired with verses that reflect the ideals, personalities, and notable figures associated with Cubism. The verses are laced with humor and irony, painting a vivid picture of the Cubies—quirky characters personifying the spirit of Cubism. From discussing iconic artists like Picasso and Duchamp to delving into themes of abstraction, color, and beauty, the book offers both educational insights and light-hearted commentary. With its playful rhymes and engaging illustrations, "The Cubies' ABC" serves as both a delightful introduction to modern art and a satirical take on the artistic movements of the time.
