Title: Children Who Played with Fire by Terry Parker This evocative woodcut print by Terry Parker captures the essence of childhood curiosity and the inherent danger that comes with it. The image depicts a group of children huddled around an open fireplace, their faces filled with wonder and excitement as they reach out to touch the flames. The fire crackles and dances, casting an orange glow over their eager faces. The scene is both enchanting and ominous, as the children's actions are fraught with potential danger. The fire, while providing warmth and light, can also cause harm if not handled with care.
