EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating image from the "Little Jewels" series of postcards, illustrated by the talented British artist Millicent Sowerby (1878-1967). Dating back to approximately 1916, this charming photograph print showcases a young girl dressed in her Sunday best, adorned with pearls and a dainty cap adorned with a pearl band. The soft focus and muted colors of the image add to the dreamlike quality, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. Millicent Sowerby was known for her exquisite illustrations, which often featured children and nature. Her work was characterized by her delicate use of color and her ability to capture the essence of childhood innocence. The "Little Jewels" series, in particular, showcases her mastery of depicting young girls in elegant and whimsical settings. In this image, the young girl gazes off into the distance, her expression a mix of wonder and contentment. Her pearl necklace, bracelet, and earrings add an air of sophistication and glamour, while her cap and dress suggest the traditional values and customs of the time. The pearl band on her cap is a subtle yet elegant touch, tying the theme of the series together. The "Little Jewels" series of postcards was popular during the early 20th century and was widely used for personal correspondence and as collectibles. This image of "Pearl" is a beautiful example of Millicent Sowerby's artistic talent and her ability to capture the essence of childhood and the allure of pearls. It remains a cherished piece of art and a reminder of a bygone era.
