Goodnight, 1911
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Arthur John Elsley is a captivating oil painting that captures the essence of early 20th-century bedtime rituals. In this enchanting scene, we see a young girl dressed in her nightie standing on a staircase, accompanied by three adorable puppies. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the architectural elements of the handrail and the intricate clothing worn by both the child and her mother. The warm glow of the oil painting transports us to a cozy interior setting as nightfall approaches. The artist skillfully portrays the tender moment between mother and daughter as they bid each other goodnight with an affectionate hand gesture. The young girl's posture exudes innocence and youthfulness, while her waving gesture adds an endearing touch to this intimate scene. Elsley's mastery lies not only in his ability to capture human emotions but also in his portrayal of animals. The presence of these playful puppies adds an element of joy and companionship to this domestic tableau. This artwork serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when daily life was filled with small moments like saying goodnight before bed. "Goodnight, 1911" invites viewers into a world where love, warmth, and familial bonds take center stage amidst the darkness outside.
