EDITORS COMMENTS
by Hector Caffieri captures a timeless scene of anticipation and innocence. In this print, we are transported to a riverbank where a group of young girls patiently await the arrival of their ferry. The artist's meticulous watercolor technique brings out every detail, from the delicate plaits in their hair to the crisp stripes on their aprons and pinnafores. The composition exudes tranquility as these children stand at the water's edge, gazing into the distance with hopeful eyes. Their youthful energy is contrasted by an air of serenity that permeates through the artwork. It is as if time has momentarily frozen, allowing us to appreciate this fleeting moment forever captured on paper. Caffieri's ability to capture light and atmosphere adds depth to this enchanting scene. The soft hues and subtle brushstrokes create a dreamlike quality that transports viewers back in time. We can almost feel the gentle breeze rustling through their clothes and hear distant sounds echoing across the river. This print serves as a reminder of simpler times when patience was not just a virtue but also an essential part of daily life. It invites us to reflect upon our own experiences waiting for something or someone with unwavering hopefulness. "Waiting for the Ferry (w/c on paper)" is more than just an exquisite piece of art; it is a window into another era filled with innocence, curiosity, and boundless imagination.
