EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures the innocence and tranquility of a young girl engrossed in her book while resting in bed. The 19th-century artwork, titled "Girl reading in bed" showcases the beauty of childhood and the power of literature to transport us into different worlds. The illustration is taken from Bubbles, a renowned children's book edited by Dr. Barnardo and published by The Children's Bookroom in London around 1895. It portrays a scene where the girl seeks solace within the pages of her book, perhaps escaping from illness or seeking comfort during her recovery. The lithograph radiates warmth with its vibrant colors, depicting the child nestled against a soft pillow as she immerses herself in reading. This image not only celebrates childhood but also highlights the importance of rest and recuperation for one's health. In an era when medical science was still evolving, this artwork serves as a reminder that books can provide solace and healing even during times of sickness. It symbolizes hope amidst adversity and reminds us that knowledge has always been an essential tool for overcoming challenges. This enchanting piece transports us back to a simpler time when imagination thrived through storytelling. It reminds us of our own childhood memories spent curled up with our favorite books, finding solace within their pages.
