EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Boy Slicing Loaf of Bread" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a young boy engrossed in his task. The image captures a moment frozen in time, as the boy sits on a stool with his hat perched on his head and boots firmly planted on the ground. With focused determination, he delicately slices through a loaf of bread held securely in his hands. The advertising ephemera surrounding this scene hints at the significance of this act - it is an advertisement for The Northwestern Consolidated Milling Company's Ceresota brand. This charming depiction not only promotes their white bread but also emphasizes the importance of food supply during that era. The artist skillfully portrays the innocence and purity of childhood through this young boy's presence. His concentration reflects both maturity beyond his years and youthful curiosity. It reminds us how even simple tasks can hold great meaning when viewed through innocent eyes. As we gaze upon this delightful artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported to a bygone era where children played vital roles in everyday life. This print serves as a reminder to cherish those small moments that shape our lives and celebrate the joy found within them.
