EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant colour litho print titled "I see d some of you young gentlemen over this side a-fishing just now" captures a delightful scene from Tom Brown's School Days, an iconic novel by Thomas Hughes. Created by artist Nicol Laidlaw in 1886-1929, this artwork is part of a private collection and showcases the essence of education and boyhood. In the image, we witness a group of well-dressed boys engrossed in their fishing activities. The setting exudes tranquility as they gather near the water's edge, eager to catch fish with their fishing implements. This snapshot encapsulates not only the joyous pastime but also highlights themes of camaraderie and exploration that are prevalent throughout Hughes' literary work. The print transports us back to an era when school days were filled with adventure and learning beyond classroom walls. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times while reminding us of the importance of fostering curiosity and outdoor experiences in children's lives. With its rich historical context, this artwork serves as a visual testament to German culture during that period. The boys' attire reflects European fashion trends while subtly hinting at Germany's influence on education systems across Northern Europe. "I see d some of you young gentlemen over this side a-fishing just now" is not merely an exquisite piece; it represents childhood innocence, literature's enduring impact on society, and the timeless allure of exploring nature through youthful eyes.
