Calling for the Ferry, 1871
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Hubert Salentin is a captivating oil painting that transports us to a simpler time in rural Germany. The scene depicts a group of impoverished children gathered on the riverbank, eagerly awaiting the arrival of a ferry. With their attention fixed on the water, they wave and call out in hopes of catching the ferryman's attention. The artist skillfully captures the essence of provincial life through his meticulous brushstrokes and attention to detail. The landscape surrounding these young souls is beautifully depicted with lush greenery and towering trees, while bundles of wood and branches lie nearby, symbolizing their daily laborious tasks. Salentin's composition draws our focus towards one child in particular – perhaps he is leading this gathering or simply yearning for an escape from his remote countryside existence. His determined expression reflects both hope and desperation as he hails for the ferry to arrive. This poignant artwork serves as a reminder of the hardships faced by those living in poverty during this era. It invites us to contemplate themes such as resilience, community bonds, and dreams for better opportunities beyond their current circumstances. As we admire this timeless piece captured by Bridgeman Images' photography expertise, we are reminded once again that art has an incredible power to transport us across time and evoke emotions that resonate deeply within our hearts.
