A Make-believe Margate
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a delightful and whimsical colour lithograph that takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century childhood. This print, created by Edith Farmiloe in 1899, captures the essence of a carefree day at the seaside town of Margate. In this charming scene, we see a group of children from different social classes joyfully engaging in playful activities on the beach. The comic illustrations and amusing verses by Winifred Parnell add an extra layer of entertainment to this nostalgic snapshot. The image transports us to a time when class distinctions were prevalent but momentarily forgotten amidst innocent laughter and shared experiences. It beautifully portrays both working-class urchins and well-dressed babies enjoying their make-believe adventures together. Farmiloe's attention to detail brings every character to life, from mischievous boys with smudged faces to adorable toddlers exploring their surroundings with curiosity. The vibrant colours evoke a sense of warmth and happiness that resonates with viewers across generations. This print not only showcases Farmiloe's artistic talent but also serves as a reminder that childhood knows no boundaries or divisions. It reminds us that even in challenging times, imagination can transport us all into a world where differences are set aside for pure enjoyment. As we gaze upon "A Make-believe Margate" we are reminded of the universal joys found in simple pleasures – whether it be building sandcastles or chasing seagulls – reminding us all to embrace
