EDITORS COMMENTS
'A Curious Examination' by Millicent Sowerby, Circa 1930 This charming print captures a tender moment between an elder sister and her baby brother as they investigate the source of their family's soft water supply. The soft water butt, a common household item during the early 20th century, was used to collect and store rainwater for domestic use. The siblings' fascination with the spout of the water butt is evident in their focused expressions and body language. The elder sister lifts her brother up to get a closer look, while he reaches out to touch the spout, his curiosity piqued by the unfamiliar object. The tranquil setting of the scene is further enhanced by the presence of some curious white ducks, who seem to be observing the children with equal interest. The gentle reflections of the trees and clouds in the surrounding pond add to the serene atmosphere. Millicent Sowerby's skillful use of color and composition creates a delightful and nostalgic image of childhood innocence and wonder. This print is a beautiful reminder of simpler times and the joy of discovery that comes with exploring the world around us.
