EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image, titled "Overeating" by Belcher, captures the essence of childhood discomfort and the irresistible allure of a village feast. The little boy in the photograph, dressed in his Sunday best, sits at a long table laden with an array of cakes and pastries. His cheeks are full, and his eyes pleadingly gaze towards an unseen "Miss," who is likely urging him to take another serving. The boy's hands are folded in his lap, and his expression is one of polite unease, as if he is trying to convey that he simply cannot consume any more. The scene transports us back in time to a simpler era, where community gatherings and village fetes were a cherished part of rural life. The historical context of this photograph, estimated to be from around 1915, adds an extra layer of intrigue and nostalgia. The children in the photograph, all dressed in their finest clothes, seem to be enjoying the festivities, despite their full bellies. The theme of overeating and the discomfort that follows is a universal experience, one that transcends time and place. This image serves as a gentle reminder of the joys and challenges of childhood, and the complex relationship we have with food and indulgence. The photograph's composition, lighting, and attention to detail make it a beautiful addition to any collection of historical images, and a fascinating glimpse into the past.
