EDITORS COMMENTS
This hauntingly beautiful illustration from 1888 depicts a little girl with a broken doll, originally entitled "Tinking Dolls Die." Part of a collection of sketches by Emily Lees called "Mothers," this Victorian image captures the innocence and vulnerability of childhood. The girl's sorrowful expression and the shattered doll in her hands evoke a sense of loss and fragility. As we gaze upon this historical piece, we are transported back in time to an era where toys were cherished possessions and playtime was filled with imagination. The intricate details in the drawing showcase the artist's skill and attention to emotion, making it a powerful depiction of maternal love and care. The Christmas-themed illustration, featured in an issue of ILN Import on December 21st, 1888, is a poignant reminder of the fleeting nature of childhood and the inevitable passage of time. It serves as a timeless symbol of nostalgia for simpler times gone by. This print is not just a picture; it is a window into history that allows us to reflect on our own memories of youth and innocence. It reminds us to cherish every moment with loved ones before they too become relics from another time.
