Boy Asleep After Eating Too Much Fruit
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming chromolitho print from the 19th century that captures a whimsical scene of childhood indulgence. In this delightful image, we see a young boy peacefully slumbering on the ground, his red jacket with collar and cuffs contrasting against the vibrant surroundings. A worried girl looks on as she holds cherries in her hands, perhaps feeling responsible for his overindulgence. The composition is filled with rich details and symbolism - branches laden with flowers, leaves scattered around, and giant cherries strewn about. The boy's rotund figure suggests he has truly enjoyed an abundance of fruit. His companion wears a red dress and cape, complementing her red shoes and hat while adding to the overall visual harmony. This artwork not only showcases American School's skillful technique but also serves as an advertisement for S Rosenbloom & Sons' cherry stone footwear in Syracuse. It effortlessly combines elements of botany, natural history, science, and childlike wonder into one captivating piece. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, it reminds us of the joyous moments of youth when food-induced slumbers were common occurrences. It invites us to appreciate both the innocence of childhood pleasures and the beauty found within scientific exploration.
