Come to Supper
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and delightful painting by British artist Ethel Parkinson, dated back to 1910. This work of art portrays a young boy, with a hopeful and determined expression, extending an invitation to an attractive dance partner. The scene is set in a grand ballroom, where the soft glow of the chandelier casts a warm and inviting light over the polished dance floor. The young boy, dressed in a smart suit and tie, holds out a small, elegant card, inviting his dance partner to join him for a supper engagement at an unspecified location. The woman, dressed in a beautiful, flowing gown, looks surprised and touched by the boy's bold gesture. Her expression is a perfect blend of intrigue, flirtation, and curiosity. The artist, Ethel Parkinson, masterfully captures the moment of tension and anticipation as the young boy takes a deep breath and summons the courage to ask his dance partner to join him for a more intimate and personal engagement. The painting is a testament to the power of courage and the importance of taking risks in life, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. The use of color and light in "Come to Supper" is truly breathtaking. The rich, warm tones of the painting create a sense of warmth and intimacy, while the delicate use of shadow and highlight adds depth and texture to the scene. The overall effect is one of romance, charm, and timeless beauty. Ethel Parkinson's "Come to Supper" is a must-see for anyone who appreciates the art of painting and the human spirit. It is a reminder that even the simplest of gestures, like an invitation to supper, can hold great meaning and significance in our lives. This painting is a true masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day.
