EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on canvas painting by American artist Edward Lamson Henry. This thought-provoking artwork, measuring 23.5x31.1 cm, depicts three individuals engaged in a race during the late 19th century. The composition showcases the artist's mastery of capturing movement and emotion through his brushstrokes. The figures are dressed in vibrant clothing that reflects the fashion trends of the era, adding an element of visual interest to the scene. One cannot help but notice the presence of discrimination within this piece. Amongst the group, there is an African American girl who stands out as she competes alongside her peers. This inclusion challenges societal norms and highlights issues surrounding racial inequality prevalent during that time. Henry's painting invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as childhood innocence and resilience in the face of adversity. It serves as a reminder that even amidst discrimination, individuals can find strength and determination to overcome obstacles. This particular print from Bridgeman Images captures every intricate detail with precision, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate Henry's skillful technique up close. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it prompts us to contemplate not only its artistic value but also its significance within American culture during the late 19th century.
