And One by One Crept Silently to Rest
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pen and black ink drawing on vellum, created by the talented British artist Jessie Marion King in the early 20th century. The artwork measures 17.8x14 cm and belongs to a private collection. In this enchanting piece, King portrays a scene of youthful innocence and tranquility under the cover of darkness. A teenage girl, dressed in a delicate nightie adorned with floral patterns, stands amidst a medium group of people who are peacefully resting. The outline of her figure is beautifully rendered, capturing both her ethereal presence and the softness of her nightwear. The intricate details in this illustration showcase King's skill as an illustrator. Each flower is meticulously drawn, adding depth and texture to the composition. The inclusion of English text from Omar Khayyam's poem adds another layer of meaning to the artwork. This evocative image transports us back in time to an era when children's clothing was more modest yet still exquisitely designed. It reminds us of the beauty that can be found even in simple moments like bedtime rituals. Overall, "And One by One Crept Silently to Rest" captures both the imagination and emotions through its delicate lines and poetic themes. It serves as a testament to Jessie Marion King's talent as one of Scotland's most renowned artists during the early 20th century.
