EDITORS COMMENTS
In this painting titled "Suspense" by Charles Burton Barber, we are transported to a Victorian bedroom filled with anticipation and excitement. The scene depicts a young girl sitting on her bed, accompanied by her loyal terrier and an adorable kitten. As the morning light streams through the window, she eagerly awaits breakfast in bed. The room is adorned with delicate flowers, adding a touch of femininity to the setting. A boiled egg sits on a tray next to her, symbolizing the simple pleasures that bring joy to our lives. The child's face radiates happiness as she clutches onto a beautifully wrapped present, hinting at an upcoming surprise or special occasion. Barber masterfully captures the innocence and wonder of childhood in this artwork. The girl's playful interaction with her pets highlights their importance as companions during moments of anticipation and excitement. Meanwhile, outside the window stands two toy soldiers - perhaps representing bravery and protection. This painting not only showcases Barber's exceptional talent for capturing human emotion but also provides us with a glimpse into Victorian life and its values surrounding family bonds and cherished pets. It serves as a reminder that even in times of waiting or suspenseful moments, there is always beauty to be found in everyday experiences.
