EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "London (West), his first suit" by Edith Farmiloe showcases a young boy dressed in a smart three-piece suit. The vibrant color lithograph captures the essence of London's West End, where fashion and style are synonymous with its rich history. The image challenges stereotypes surrounding nationalities and class, as it portrays a child from an affluent background. The boy's impeccable attire reflects the spoilt nature often associated with rich kids. However, this artwork goes beyond appearances, reminding us that children from all walks of life deserve to be seen and celebrated. Through this piece, Farmiloe invites viewers to ponder the diversity found within England and across the world. It prompts us to question preconceived notions about race and nationality by showcasing how clothing can transcend boundaries. The attention to detail in the boy's outfit highlights not only his individuality but also speaks volumes about the importance placed on appearance during that era. This evocative illustration was originally created for All the World Over magazine in 1898, capturing a moment frozen in time. Farmiloe's work serves as a reminder that even at such a young age, children possess their own unique identities shaped by their surroundings. This thought-provoking print is sure to captivate anyone who appreciates art that challenges societal norms while celebrating cultural diversity.
