A Thirsty Little Soul
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour litho print that transports us back to the 19th century, specifically the Victorian era. This humorous and entertaining illustration by Edith Farmiloe captures the essence of lower working-class life in London's East End. The scene depicts an adorable baby boy, his mouth wide open in anticipation, reaching out for a bottle of milk held by an unseen hand. The comic element lies in the exaggerated expression on the child's face as he eagerly quenches his thirst. It is evident that this little one has been anxiously waiting for this moment. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for "Rag, Tag, and Bobtail" a book written by Winifred Parnell and published in 1899. The image perfectly complements Parnell's verses, adding depth to the story being told. Through this charming print, we catch a glimpse into the lives of children from different social backgrounds during that time period. It reminds us of their innocence and resilience amidst challenging circumstances. With its vibrant colours and attention to detail, "A Thirsty Little Soul" offers both historical insight and artistic delight. It serves as a testament to Edith Farmiloe's talent as an illustrator while capturing our hearts with its endearing portrayal of childhood joy and longing.
