In the Rain
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating etching with watercolour and pastel on ivory wove paper, created by the renowned American artist Helen Hyde in 1898. This evocative work of art transports us back to the late 19th century, where two young girls, dressed in traditional attire from different continents, share a moment of camaraderie in the rain. The image captures the essence of childhood innocence, as the girls, one in a Japanese kimono and the other in an American dress, run side by side, their umbrellas shielding them from the relentless downpour. The vibrant green colour of the Japanese kimono contrasts beautifully with the pink hue of the American dress, adding to the visual allure of the artwork. Hyde's masterful use of etching techniques, combined with the delicate application of watercolour and pastel, brings the scene to life, from the intricate details of the girls' clothing to the shimmering droplets on their umbrellas and the rosy reflection in the puddles. The etching is a metaphor for the universal experience of childhood, transcending cultural boundaries and uniting people through shared moments of joy and playfulness. This exquisite piece of art is a testament to the rich heritage of 19th-century art and the enduring appeal of traditional clothing. It is currently housed in the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. Whether viewed in person or in print, "In the Rain" is a timeless treasure that invites us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of human experience.
