EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the innocence and wonder of childhood as young boys and girls reach out to touch the vibrant poppies in full bloom. The scene is set in a lush, green meadow, with the sun casting a warm, golden glow over the landscape. The poppies, with their bold, fiery red petals and dark centers, stand out against the verdant backdrop, creating a striking contrast. The photograph, dated circa 1904, is reminiscent of an advertisement for Owbridge's Lung Tonic, a popular remedy during that era. However, it is important to note that this image is not an actual advertisement and was likely taken for artistic purposes. The inclusion of the poppies, a symbol of sleep and relaxation, may have been intentional, as Owbridge's Lung Tonic was marketed as a natural remedy for respiratory issues. Despite the potential connection to the tonic, the focus of this photograph remains on the children and their interaction with nature. Their joy and fascination with the poppies is palpable, and the image transports us back in time to a simpler era when the pleasures of childhood were found in the simple things, like the beauty of a flower in full bloom.
