A Moment of Innocence: A Little Girl's Bedtime Prayer, by Mabel Lucie Attwell In this charming and evocative image by renowned British illustrator Mabel Lucie Attwell, a young girl is depicted in the quiet intimacy of her bedroom, kneeling at the edge of her round, white bed, her hands folded in prayer. Her cherished teddy bear and doll rest on the bed beside her, their expressions as serious as the little girl's as she recites her nightly prayers. With a look of deep concentration, she implores, "Never let Teddy and Dolly be naughty, forever amen." The soft, rounded lines and gentle colors of Attwell's illustration capture the essence of childhood innocence and the comforting rituals of bedtime. The girl's simple, heartfelt prayer speaks to the universal experience of wanting to protect and care for the things that bring joy and comfort to our lives. The presence of her beloved teddy bear and doll underscores the importance of companionship and the power of imagination in the world of a child. This image, titled "Little girl kneeling on her bed, saying her prayers: Never let Teddy and Dolly be naughty, forever amen," is a delightful reminder of the simple pleasures and enduring innocence of childhood. Dating from the 1930s, it is a testament to the timeless appeal of Mabel Lucie Attwell's work and her ability to capture the essence of childhood in her illustrations.
