"The Cradle", by J. Israels, in the International Exhibition, 1862. Engraving of a painting. We have observed that..."The Cradle" is greatly admired by the ladies. To the ladies, then - and we are vain enough to think that we number more fair readers than any of our contemporaries - we commend this Engraving. But before any sterner male reader turns to another page we would ask if there is not some more recondite meaning than might at first be suspected - some infant thought in the cradle? There seems to us to be something, at all events, very suggestive in the Dutch painter, who lives in a country that may almost be said to be cradled by the sea, and who must literally know the smell of the sea from his cradle, painting this picture of the washing of the family cradle on the seashore. Whether or not there be anything beneath the surface of this picture no one will shame his manhood, whose heart is in the right place, by looking for a few moments at this little girl emulating the national mania of the Dutch for scrubbing, or even at the prettily-expressed, absorbed look of the child-sister'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

The Cradle
EDITORS COMMENTS
by J. Israëls, a Dutch painter, was a captivating exhibit at the International Exhibition in 1862, as depicted in this engraving by W. Thomas. The painting, which showcases a young girl washing a family cradle on the seashore, has been a favorite among the ladies, as noted in the Illustrated London News. The publication expressed admiration for the work, inviting ladies to appreciate the image, while also hinting at a deeper meaning for the more discerning male viewer. Israëls, born and raised in a country where the sea cradles the land, brings a unique perspective to the scene. His familiarity with the sea's smell from his earliest days is reflected in this painting, which captures the national obsession of the Dutch people with water and cleanliness. The little girl in the image, engrossed in her task, embodies this characteristic. The engraving invites viewers to ponder the significance of the painting beyond its surface. The artist's mastery of light and texture, as well as the emotional depth conveyed by the child's expression, add layers to the interpretation of this simple scene. The painting invites us to reflect on the universal themes of childhood, family, and the passage of time, making it a timeless masterpiece. The Cradle by J. Israëls, with its evocative imagery and thought-provoking depth, continues to captivate audiences and inspire artists to this day. W. Thomas's engraving serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of this iconic work, which transcends cultural and temporal boundaries.
