EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming chromolitho print captures a delightful moment of childhood joy and innocence. In the late 19th century, English children are depicted in their home, laughing heartily at their own reflections. The image is taken from The Little Ones Own Coloured Picture Paper, a popular publication by Dean and Son in the 1890s. The room exudes an air of domestic comfort, with a servant diligently polishing furniture in the background. The children's clothing reflects the fashion of the era, as boys don smart three-piece suits while girls wear pretty dresses adorned with bows. Their outfits shine brightly under the light, adding to the overall sense of merriment. Amidst this scene unfolds an amusing distortion caused by mirrors – each child sees themselves differently than they truly appear. This playful effect adds to their laughter and creates a captivating visual experience for viewers. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this artwork also offers insights into societal norms and stereotypes prevalent during Victorian times. It showcases both gender-specific attire and class distinctions through depictions of servants tending to household chores. In essence, this print encapsulates timeless themes such as childhood wonderment and self-discovery while providing glimpses into historical customs and perceptions. Its vibrant colors and lively atmosphere make it an enchanting piece that continues to captivate audiences today.
