The Little Peacemaker, 1895
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pencil and watercolor artwork by Eleanor Manly. This enchanting piece measures 50.8x71.8 cm and is part of a private collection. The painting depicts a heartwarming scene set in the late nineteenth century, within the confines of a beautifully decorated room. Four children, two boys and two girls, are featured alongside their nursemaid. The central figure is a young girl dressed in formal attire, symbolizing peace as she stands before her siblings who appear to be engaged in an argument or disagreement. Eleanor Manly skillfully captures the essence of childhood conflict and presents us with this little peacemaker who attempts to protect her family from negative concepts such as enemies or disputes. Her presence exudes innocence and compassion as she stands near a crib, emphasizing her role as both protector and nurturer. The artist's use of pencil drawing combined with delicate watercolors adds depth and emotion to the composition. The attention to detail in clothing and interior decoration transports us back to this Victorian era setting. "The Little Peacemaker" serves as a reminder that even amidst disagreements, there can always be someone willing to bridge divides and promote harmony within families or society at large. Manly's distinguished artistic style brings this message alive through her portrayal of youthful resilience against conflict.
