EDITORS COMMENTS
In this color litho print titled "That Wicked Mosquito!", we are transported to the vibrant world of early 20th century India. The English School artist skillfully captures the essence of irritation and annoyance caused by these tiny insects through their intricate detailing. The scene depicts a group of Indian children, engrossed in their daily activities, when suddenly they find themselves under attack from a mischievous mosquito. With its wings poised mid-flight and its needle-like proboscis ready to strike, the wicked mosquito becomes a symbol of both frustration and resilience. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for Bubbles, a children's book edited by Dr Barnardo in 1904. It beautifully encapsulates the universal experience of being bitten by mosquitoes while also shedding light on Indian culture and Asian aesthetics. Through this image, we gain insight into the interconnectedness between humans and nature. The buzzing presence of mosquitoes serves as a reminder that even amidst our daily routines, unexpected challenges can arise. Yet, it is our ability to persevere with humor and grace that defines us. As we admire this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us appreciate not only its artistic merit but also reflect on our own encounters with those pesky creatures who have managed to leave an indelible mark on human history across continents.
