EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene straight out of a nursery rhyme from the late 19th century. A young boy proudly stands on steps, holding a gun in one hand and a dead duck in the other, while a young girl looks on with curiosity. The innocence of childhood is juxtaposed with the harsh reality of hunting in this historical image.
Part of Box 102 in the Nursery Rhymes collection from the Boswell collection, this photograph offers a glimpse into the past and how children were raised during that time period. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when playing outdoors and learning practical skills like hunting were common activities for young boys.
The composition of the image is striking, with the boy's confident stance contrasting with the girl's more reserved expression. The details captured in this photograph speak volumes about societal norms and gender roles at that time.
As we reflect on this snapshot from history, we are reminded of how much has changed since then, yet also how some aspects of childhood remain timeless. This print is not just an image but a window into another era, inviting us to ponder on our own perceptions of childhood and upbringing.
