EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait illustration, titled "Kit," showcases a young girl named Kit standing proudly with folded arms and wide-set feet, exuding confidence and self-assurance. The image, created circa 1916, captures the essence of childhood innocence and determination. Kit is depicted wearing a dressing gown and striped pyjamas, adding to the cozy and inviting atmosphere of the illustration. The soft color palette and intricate details of the clothing further highlight the attention to detail and artistic skill of the illustrator. The portrait was published in a volume of the renowned March of the Women Collection, a series of illustrations that celebrated the lives and experiences of women during the early 20th century. This particular illustration was created by the talented hand of William Newenham Orpen, a prominent Irish artist known for his skillful depictions of children and everyday life. Orpen's ability to capture the spirit and personality of his subjects is evident in this charming portrait of Kit. The March of the Women Collection was a popular and influential publication during its time, providing a platform for the works of many prominent illustrators and contributing to the growing appreciation for the art form. This illustration of Kit serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of children's illustrations and the power of art to capture the imagination and evoke emotion.
