EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Girls in escaping a man wielding a knife" depicts a tense and dramatic scene that immediately captures the viewer's attention. Created by an English School artist in the 20th century, this colour lithograph showcases the incredible talent of the creator. The image portrays a group of young girls desperately trying to escape from a menacing man who brandishes a knife. The fear and urgency are palpable as they make their way towards safety through an open window. This powerful illustration was originally featured in Hultons Girls Stories, published by Allied Newspapers Limited in Manchester around 1944. The composition skillfully combines elements such as animals, including camels, with vibrant colours to enhance the intensity of the situation. The contrast between innocence and danger is strikingly portrayed through the juxtaposition of children fleeing from harm while armed with only their wits. As we observe this early twentieth-century artwork, it serves as both an intriguing news item and an engaging visual story. The detailed depiction of each character adds depth to their emotions and actions, making us empathize with their plight. This thought-provoking piece reminds us of humanity's resilience even in times of adversity. It stands as a testament to the power of art to capture our imagination and evoke strong emotions within us.
