Waving goodbye, 1890
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment of heartfelt farewell in the bustling streets of London. The image, originally published in the Girls Own Paper in 1884, depicts a scene of two friends bidding each other adieu with a wave. The illustration by Alfred J. Johnson beautifully conveys the emotions of parting ways with someone dear.
The setting is quintessentially British, with the architecture and attire reflecting the late nineteenth century style. The attention to detail in this print transports us back to a time when manners and etiquette were highly valued.
As one figure waves from a horse-drawn carriage, the other stands on the sidewalk, their body language expressing both sadness at saying goodbye and hope for future reunions. It is a poignant reminder of how simple gestures like waving can convey deep emotions.
This image serves as a timeless reminder of the importance of cherishing moments spent with loved ones and appreciating every opportunity to show kindness and politeness towards others. In an era where technology often replaces face-to-face interactions, "Waving goodbye, 1890" reminds us that human connection and good manners are essential aspects of our shared humanity.
