EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 1859 oil painting titled "Helping Herself". Pierre Edouard Frere masterfully captures a poignant moment in time. The scene unfolds within the intimate setting of a rustic kitchen, where a young girl is caught quenching her thirst in an act that appears both desperate and illicit. The composition centers around the child, who stands alone by a table adorned with various household objects. With her eyes fixed on the viewer, she clutches a small jug known as a cruche, while delicately sipping from it. Her face reveals both vulnerability and determination as she surreptitiously steals this much-needed drink. Frere's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the worn clogs on the floor to the aged wooden furniture that surrounds her. Through his skillful use of light and shadow, he creates an atmosphere that evokes empathy for this young girl's plight. "Helping Herself" serves as a powerful reminder of the hardships faced by many during this era. It speaks to themes of poverty, survival, and resilience amidst challenging circumstances. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork, we are compelled to reflect on our own privilege and consider how even something as simple as satisfying one's thirst can become an act of defiance or desperation. This remarkable piece now resides at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, USA – its presence there allowing us to appreciate Frere's talent while also contemplating deeper societal issues through artistry that transcends time.
