EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white sketch, titled "Sketch for Happy as a King" takes us back to the 19th century with its timeless charm. Created by the talented artist William Collins (1788-1847), this drawing is now housed in the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London, UK. The sketch portrays a young boy standing before an ornate gate, his innocent gaze fixed on something beyond our view. The child's posture exudes curiosity and wonderment, inviting us to ponder what lies ahead for him. With skillful strokes of his pencil, Collins captures not only the physical features of the boy but also his inner emotions. The simplicity of this drawing adds to its allure.
