EDITORS COMMENTS
Playing at Mammas: A Little Sister's Delight in Nurturing her Younger Brother (circa 1918) This charming photograph captures a tender moment between a young girl and her little brother as she gently washes his face. Dressed in a red nightgown and stockings, the girl sits on a wooden chair, her elder sisterly presence exuding a sense of maturity and responsibility. With a small washbowl and jug in hand, she carefully pours water over her brother's face, who sits obediently on a nearby stool, donning a nightshirt and nightcap. The scene is reminiscent of the traditional role reversal of children playing 'Mammas and Papas,' where the younger sibling assumes the role of the adult caregiver. The use of simple, everyday objects such as the bowl, jug, and night clothes adds to the authenticity of the moment, transporting us back to the Edwardian era. The sister's gentle touch and the brother's trusting gaze create a heartwarming image of sibling bonding and the joy of playing at being a parent.
