EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Vibrant Snapshot of Childhood Amidst the 1918 Influenza Pandemic This color lithograph, titled "And in flew Enza!", transports us back to the tumultuous year of 1918, when the world was gripped by the deadly Spanish Flu pandemic. The image, a popular children's street rhyme of the time, offers a poignant glimpse into the lives of young ones as they navigated the challenges of an uncertain world. The print, now a cherished historic object in a private collection, depicts a group of children playing in the streets, oblivious to the looming threat of the influenza epidemic. Their joyful faces, filled with curiosity and mischief, are a stark contrast to the ominous clouds of sickness that hung heavy in the air. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the lithography bring the scene to life, capturing the essence of a simpler time. The children, dressed in their Sunday best, are engaged in a game of "I had a little bird," a popular rhyme that would have provided a brief moment of respite from the fears and anxieties of the day. The graphic arts masterfully convey the spirit of childhood innocence, even as the Great Influenza Epidemic raged on. The image serves as a reminder of the resilience and adaptability of children, who, despite the challenges, continued to find joy and laughter in the midst of adversity. This historic object is a testament to the power of art to capture and preserve moments in history, offering us a window into the past and a reminder of the enduring human spirit. The "And in flew Enza!" print is a precious addition to any collection, a vibrant snapshot of a time when the world held its breath in anticipation of the next turn in the global health crisis.
