A Little Boy Lost 1920

"A Little Boy Lost" is a black and white illustration by Dorothy Lathrop, a prominent American illustrator of the 20th century, known for her distinctive style. The image depicts a young boy, seemingly lost and alone in a dark, mysterious forest. A large owl perched in the background adds to the sense of isolation and uncertainty, creating a visually striking and emotionally resonant scene, characteristic of Lathrop's work. The stark contrast between black and white, and the intricate details of the forest foliage, create a sense of depth and atmosphere, contributing to the story's overall mood. This artwork was created in 1920, reflecting Lathrop's artistic style during this period.
