EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Young girl balancing to reach the sugar" takes us back to a bygone era in the early 20th century. The image, captured in vibrant colour lithography, showcases a young girl standing on her tiptoes, delicately balancing herself as she reaches for a jar of sugar placed high on a shelf. The setting is reminiscent of simpler times with its vintage furniture and upholstered goods adorning the room. It tells a story of modesty and scarcity, highlighting the historical context of poverty and precariousness that many faced during this period. The young child's determination is palpable as she stretches towards her desired treat. Her dress, possibly made from light summer fabric like saree or frock, adds an element of innocence and charm to the scene. Through this postcard-like illustration, we are transported into history where even small pleasures like reaching for sugar were cherished. The use of lithograph technique enhances the colours and details, making it all the more enchanting. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection serves as both an artistic representation and a window into our past. It reminds us to appreciate our present abundance while acknowledging those who lived through different circumstances not too long ago.
