EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative early 20th century photograph captures a poignant moment between a neglected pet and its young human companion. The image, titled "Expect she will love me again when he's gone...," tells a story of unspoken affection and longing. The dog, with its sad eyes and matted coat, appears to be yearning for attention and love from the two children, who seem to be preoccupied with each other. The older child holds a toy, possibly a doll, while the younger one gazes off into the distance, oblivious to the suffering animal at their feet. The title of the photograph suggests that the children may be expecting the return of their absent father, and that the dog believes that once he is gone, they will once again shower her with love and care. The historical context of this photograph is significant, as it reflects the changing role of pets in society during the early 20th century. Pets were increasingly becoming cherished members of the family, and the neglect depicted in this image would have been considered unacceptable by many. The photograph serves as a reminder of the deep emotional bonds that can exist between humans and animals, and the importance of providing them with the care and attention they deserve.
