Description

In this endearing illustration by Jessie Willcox Smith, a young caretaker struggles to hang her doll's clothes on a gusty day! Originally titled Dollie's Day, Laundry Day, this artwork was crafted in 1932. Among Smith's numerous portrayals of children, it captures a timeless moment of childhood innocence.

Jessie Willcox Smith (1863-1935), a cherished name at Laughing Elephant, wields a remarkable artistic legacy. Mentored by Howard Pyle, an illustrious influence, she emerged as a formidable woman artist in the Golden Age of Illustration, defying norms in a male-dominated realm—she was among the highest-paid illustrators of her time! Beyond canvas, she left her mark on nearly 200 Good Housekeeping magazine covers, while also gracing classic children's books and creating artistic ads for iconic brands like Ivory Soap and Kodak. Sensitivity to human experience defined her work, and her idealized images endure as motherhood and childhood archetypes.
