EDITORS COMMENTS
GIBSON: BOY, 1896. In Days To Come, Who Will Look After This Boy? Pen and ink drawing captures the essence of a bygone era, evoking both nostalgia and concern for the future. Created in 1896 by Charles Dana Gibson, this thought-provoking artwork raises questions about the fate of this young boy. Dressed in tattered clothing that reflects his impoverished state, the boy stands tall with a sense of resilience amidst adversity. His gaze is filled with hope and determination despite his uncertain circumstances. The intricate details in the pen and ink drawing bring to life every fold in his robe, every strand of hair on his wig. The artist's use of satire is evident through various symbols within the piece - from the judge's robe to the soldier's sword - highlighting societal issues prevalent during that time period. It serves as a reminder that even children were not exempt from facing hardships such as poverty or abandonment. As we admire this print today, it compels us to reflect upon our own responsibility towards future generations. Who will look after this boy? What can we do to ensure a brighter tomorrow for all children? This timeless artwork serves as an important reminder that it is our collective duty to protect and nurture those who are vulnerable among us.
