EDITORS COMMENTS
Valentine Thomas Garland's captivating drawing, "Doddy and Her Pets," showcases the playful bond between a young girl and her beloved animals in the heart of the 1880s. The second half of the 19th century artist masterfully captures the essence of Costumbrism, a genre that focuses on depicting everyday life and local customs in Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries. In this vertical, color drawing, we see a young girl named Doddy, dressed in the fashion of the time, sitting on a wooden stool in an outdoor setting. Surrounding her are an assortment of pets, including a dog, a cat, and a bird, all vying for her attention. The warm, earthy tones of the drawing bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. The artist, Thomas Garland, expertly captures the tenderness and affection between Doddy and her pets, as well as the curiosity and mischief in their eyes. The drawing is a testament to the deep connection between children and animals, and the joy and companionship they bring to one another. Thomas Garland, a prolific artist of the late 19th century, was known for his portraits and scenes of everyday life. "Doddy and Her Pets" is a prime example of his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time and bring it to life through his art. This beautiful drawing is a must-have for any collection of historical art, and a reminder of the enduring bond between children and their pets.
