When First We Meet
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jessica Hayllar is a captivating oil painting that transports us to the elegant world of 19th century England. The artwork, created in 1892, showcases the artist's mastery in capturing not only the physical beauty but also the intricate social dynamics of the time. In this scene, we witness a tender encounter between a mother and her child as they engage in their first meeting. The mother, dressed impeccably in fashionable attire of the era, exudes grace and refinement. Her delicate features are complemented by her surroundings - an opulent sofa adorned with an exquisite tablecloth and vibrant carpet. The young child stands timidly before his mother, displaying shyness and innocence. As he clutches onto his toy tightly, one can almost feel his apprehension at this new experience. A cup of tea sits on the table nearby, symbolizing both hospitality and domesticity. Hayllar's attention to detail is evident throughout the painting; from the carefully chosen colors that bring life to every element within it to her portrayal of societal norms and values. Through this artwork, she invites us to reflect upon themes such as childhood innocence, maternal love, social etiquette, and class distinctions prevalent during that period. "When First We Meet" serves as a timeless reminder of our shared human experiences across generations while offering us a glimpse into a bygone era filled with elegance and sophistication.
