EDITORS COMMENTS
School Friends (circa 1910): This black and white portrait, captured by the talented Edward Gooch, takes us back in time to Petersham, England. The focus of this image is Maurice Pluthero, a lively nine-year-old boy who happens to be the son of a local builder. Standing at an impressive 50 inches around the chest, Maurice's physical diversity shines through as he proudly poses for the camera. In this snapshot of childhood in early 20th century Europe, we witness a moment frozen in time. The photo exudes nostalgia and captures the essence of camaraderie among school friends. Maurice stands tall amongst his male peers on a quaint English street. Edward Gooch's expert use of black and white format adds depth and character to this archival gem. It beautifully highlights both the innocence and resilience found within children during that era. This photograph not only showcases Maurice's unique physique but also offers glimpses into everyday life in Petersham. From construction workers bustling nearby to couples strolling hand-in-hand along the streets, it encapsulates human interest at its finest. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Storehouse, let us reflect on how images like these connect us with our shared history while celebrating individuality and physical diversity.
