EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Silhouettes (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the exquisite artistry of English School. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in the book "Our Picture Book, Dedicated to the Duchess of Teck" by S. W. Partridge around 1878. In this enchanting scene, we witness a group of children immersed in various activities amidst nature's beauty. A young girl playfully interacts with her horse while other boys and girls explore their surroundings. Birds flutter above them as they pick fruits from trees and feed a nest full of hungry chicks. The intricate details captured through silhouettes bring life to this historical moment. An owl perches on a branch nearby, observing the scene with its piercing eyes. A dog accompanies one child who sits at a desk engrossed in his studies. The presence of domestic cats adds warmth to this idyllic setting, as kittens playfully chase each other underfoot. Horses graze peacefully in the distance, alongside ponies and shire horses that symbolize rural life. This image not only showcases playful innocence but also highlights scientific exploration with references to botany and natural history through botanical specimens and walking sticks used for observation. Through this remarkable artwork by Bridgeman Images, we are transported into an era where children find joy in simple pleasures surrounded by wildlife animals and bountiful fruit bowls - reminding us all about the wonders of childhood discovery.
