EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled "Portrait of a young boy seated at an outdoor table, facing front," was created by renowned American photographer Joseph Woodson Whitesell between 1940 and 1950. The image transports us back in time to the 1900s in the United States, where the simple joys of childhood are on full display. The young boy, dressed in a short-sleeved shirt and pants, sits confidently at an outdoor table, a soft toy in hand, and a smile playing on his lips. The table, adorned with a checkered tablecloth, adds an element of charm to the scene, while the garden in the background provides a serene and idyllic setting. The use of platinum prints during this era, as seen in this photograph, was a popular choice for capturing the intricacies and subtleties of the human form. Whitesell, also known as "Pops Whitesell," was a master of this technique, as evidenced by the exquisite detail and tonal range in this image. This portrait is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, where the simple pleasures of life were cherished, and the beauty of childhood was celebrated. It is a valuable addition to the rich heritage of American photography and a testament to the enduring appeal of the human spirit.
