EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant coloured engraving captures the mischievousness and rebellious spirit of childhood. Titled "Playing truant from school" it depicts a scene that many can relate to - the thrill of skipping class and evading responsibilities. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the late 19th century, this print showcases a moment frozen in time. The comic strip-like composition tells a story filled with emotions ranging from happiness to anger. The seven deadly sins are subtly hinted at, as these young boys indulge in their desires for freedom and adventure. Their expressions reveal both joy and mischief, reflecting the gaiety of their actions. However, hidden within this cheerful scene lies an important lesson about morality and consequences. As they play hooky, these children risk punishment from their teachers, parents or even society itself. The image serves as a reminder that misbehaviour often leads to bitter outcomes. Through its historical context, this artwork offers us a glimpse into past educational practices while highlighting timeless themes such as childhood rebellion and parental discipline. It reminds us of our own youthful escapades while also prompting reflection on how our actions shape our lives. Overall, this print invites viewers to reminisce about their own experiences playing truant while contemplating the complexities of human emotion and behavior during childhood years.
