EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful and whimsical illustration titled "DUMAURIER: VELOCIPEDE. Happy Thought. An English mother's daydream" created by the talented artist George DuMaurier in 1890, we are transported to a serene park setting in England. The scene is filled with laughter and joy as an upper-class English mother indulges in a daydream while her twin children play nearby. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the mother's happy thought - a velocipede, or what we now know as a bicycle! Her imagination takes flight as she envisions herself gracefully riding through the park on this new invention, bringing smiles to everyone who witnesses her carefree spirit. DuMaurier's attention to detail shines through his intricate linework and delicate shading, capturing not only the physical features but also the playful personalities of each character. The mischievous grin on one of the twins' faces adds an element of humor to this heartwarming scene. This drawing beautifully encapsulates both the innocence and aspirations of childhood, reminding us that even amidst our responsibilities as parents, it is essential to nurture our own dreams and find moments for pure happiness. It serves as a timeless tribute to mothers everywhere who strive to create magical memories for their children while cherishing their own desires.
