EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Q, Queenslander (colour litho)" takes us back to the early 20th century, capturing a moment in history through art. Created by an English School artist, this piece is part of a private collection and showcases the rich diversity of nations and races. The image was originally used as an illustration for "The World at Home ABC: An Alphabet of Countries" written by W Gibbons in approximately 1903. It beautifully represents the letter Q with its depiction of a Queenslander - someone from Queensland, Australia. Intriguingly, this artwork challenges racial stereotypes prevalent during that time period. By showcasing an aborigine native standing outside their traditional hut, it invites viewers to reflect on ideas surrounding race and nationality. With its vibrant colors and attention to detail, this print serves as both a historical artifact and a reminder of how children's books have played a role in shaping societal perceptions. The inclusion of Queensland within the alphabet emphasizes Australia's significance within global culture. As we observe this image today, let us appreciate its artistic value while also acknowledging the complex historical context it represents. This photograph offers us an opportunity to explore our understanding of race, nations, and cultural identity through visual storytelling.
