EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical drawing titled "Drawing Of A Man Spanking A Child, After Hans Holbein The Younger". Taken from the renowned book "Histoire Des Peintres, eCole Allemande" published in 1875, this illustration offers a glimpse into the disciplinary practices of the sixteenth century. In this thought-provoking image, we witness a stern-looking man punishing a misbehaving child. With an air of authority and seriousness, he holds a whip in one hand while firmly grasping the child's arm with the other. The child appears small and vulnerable, their face etched with fear and discomfort. The artist skillfully captures the tension between punishment and discipline in this sketch. It serves as a reminder of how different societal norms were during that era - where physical chastisement was considered an acceptable means to correct behavior. Holbein's influence is evident through his meticulous attention to detail; every line conveys emotion and purpose. This drawing portrays not only an act of spanking but also reflects on power dynamics within educational institutions at that time. As we contemplate this artwork by Ken Welsh, it prompts us to reflect on our own understanding of discipline today. It encourages us to question whether such methods are effective or if there are alternative approaches that can foster growth without resorting to physical punishment.
