EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nearly worn out" showcases a colour lithograph created by an English School artist in the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, was originally featured as an illustration for Bubbles edited by Dr Barnardo in 1900. The artwork depicts a young boy, dressed in tattered summer clothes and wearing a cap, diligently sweeping the streets with his brush. Despite his impoverished state and precarious circumstances, there is an undeniable beauty to this scene. The vibrant colours of the lithograph bring life to the boy's surroundings - from the various hats adorning passersby to the playful presence of kittens nearby. This poignant portrayal captures both childhood innocence and resilience amidst adversity. It serves as a reminder of the hardships faced by many during that era, particularly those living in poverty-stricken conditions. Yet even in such challenging circumstances, this little boy finds solace in his work and takes moments to rest. The use of lithography adds depth and texture to this evocative piece of art. Each stroke on paper tells a story - one that speaks not only about societal struggles but also about human strength and determination. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back to a time when every detail mattered; where even mundane tasks held significance within their own right. This image encapsulates history while simultaneously inviting us into its narrative – urging us to reflect on our own lives and appreciate the resilience found within each individual's journey
