Family with barefoot boy more
cartoons, people, costumes, bare feet, men, women, children, boys, skinhead, sketch, drinking
A sketch, almost a cartoon. A lady with a hat and long dress. A man wearing a bow tie and tweed sporting jacket. A boy, barefoot, holding a bottle or can up to his mouth to drink. It is signed PR 1900, and attributed to Paul Rieth.
A dialogue is printed below the picture.
Google Translate gives me:
Munich Child
“Well, little boy, what do you mean by what you and I are like?
“I just mean: Englishmen!”
“Ah! And what about you?”
“Well, because they haven’t even finished their beer yet!”
The German is (i think: Fraktur is tricky at times):
Müncher Kind’
“Na, Kleiner boy, uas meinst Du denn jetzt, uas uir so sind?”
“I moan halt alleweil: Englander!”
“Ah! Und uieso?”
“No, weil’s no’ net amal mit dem Krügerl ferti worn san!”
I made a separate image of the barefoot boy.
