EDITORS COMMENTS
In this thought-provoking 1891 engraving titled "Sent out for Punishment, Spare the Rod, Spoil the Child" artist 000058 captures a poignant moment in history that reflects society's views on discipline and parenting. The image showcases a Victorian-era scene where a child is being sent away as punishment, highlighting the prevailing belief that sparing physical chastisement would lead to spoiled children. The illustrative technique employed by 000058 adds depth and emotion to the artwork. The intricate engravement beautifully portrays the expressions of both parent and child, conveying their conflicting emotions of sadness, fear, and resignation.
