EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph, titled "Child praying" depicts a young girl deep in prayer. The image showcases the innocence and devotion of childhood as she kneels beside her bed, hands clasped together in supplication. Dressed in a delicate Victorian gown, the child's serene expression reflects her unwavering faith. The artwork was originally created as an illustration for The Little Learners Toy Book by the Religious Tract Society in 1875. It beautifully captures a moment of quiet reflection and religious education during that era. The composition is rich with historical details, including the ornate upholstered chair on which the child rests her knees. This single piece of furniture adds to the overall ambiance of the room—a quaint bedroom filled with furnishings from a bygone century. Through this print, we are transported back to a time when bedtime prayers were an essential part of every child's routine. It serves as a reminder of how important it is to nurture spirituality and instill moral values at an early age. Bridgeman Images has preserved this precious artwork from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and significance today. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be moved by its timeless message: that even in our busy modern lives, taking moments for prayer and contemplation can bring solace and peace to our souls.
