EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "W, West Indian" takes us back to the early 20th century, where racial stereotypes and ideas of different nations were prevalent. The image is a colour lithograph from an English School artist and belongs to a private collection. The artwork was originally created as an illustration for "The World at Home ABC" a children's book by W Gibbons published around 1903. It showcases the letter 'W' with its focus on the West Indies and their rich botanical heritage. In this vibrant scene, we see a black West Indian individual carrying a basket on their head filled with tropical fruits. The composition beautifully captures the essence of life in the tropics, highlighting both the abundance of fruit supply and the importance of botany in these regions. While it is essential to acknowledge that this image reflects historical attitudes towards race and cultural stereotypes prevalent during that time period, it also serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of understanding diversity and embracing inclusivity. This print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon our past while appreciating its artistic value within the context of history, natural history, science, food culture, and alphabet learning.
