Browne Enid Kites Learning Older Sister Warne 1922
A Day of Joy and Wonder - Young Siblings Learning to Fly Kites,
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Enid Warne Browne, Circa 1922 In this charming and nostalgic image by Enid Warne Browne, we see the simple delight of childhood as two young siblings, a boy and a girl, learn to fly their kites in an open, sunlit field. The older sister, with her arms outstretched and a determined look on her face, is in the process of teaching her younger brother the art of kite flying. The boy, with a look of pure excitement and concentration, holds the string of his kite, ready to feel the thrill of it soaring through the sky. The sister's elegant dress, with its flowing skirt and high collar, is reminiscent of the fashion of the 1920s. Her hair is styled in a bob, a popular look for women of the time. The young boy wears a simple shirt and shorts, typical attire for a day spent outdoors. The older girl, with her braids and dress, looks on with a smile, clearly enjoying the moment and the bonding experience with her brother. The field, dotted with wildflowers and tall grasses, adds to the idyllic scene. The blue sky, with its fluffy clouds, provides the perfect backdrop for the colorful kites. The scene is one of pure joy, wonder, and the simple pleasures of childhood. Enid Warne Browne, a talented artist, captures the essence of this moment in time, transporting us back to a simpler era, where the joys of childhood were found in the simplest of things, like flying a kite in an open field with a loved one.
