The Inconsiderate Waiter
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment of literary brilliance in this engraving by Amedee Forestier. The scene unfolds within the confines of a quaint window, transporting us to a time when manners held great importance. With an air of rudeness and indifference, the waiter has turned away from his duty, leaning casually against the table as if oblivious to his patrons' needs. J. M. Barrie's masterful storytelling comes alive through this visual interpretation, originally published in The Illustrated London News Christmas Number of 1891. The illustration perfectly encapsulates the essence of "The Inconsiderate Waiter" evoking feelings of indignation and frustration that any diner can relate to. As we gaze upon this print, we conceive William's exasperation at being ignored by the waiter who should be attending to him with utmost care. Barrie's ability to capture such relatable moments is truly remarkable. This artwork from Bridgeman Images transports us back in time and reminds us that even in literature, small acts of thoughtlessness can leave lasting impressions on our lives. It serves as a reminder for all individuals - whether waiters or customers - to always consider others and treat them with respect. In this engraving, Forestier skillfully brings together both artistic talent and literary genius into one captivating image that will surely resonate with anyone who has experienced the frustrations caused by an inconsiderate waiter.
