This is a close-up of a tiny section of the front cover of an old Ladybird Book (‘you know, for kids’, to steal Tim Robbins’ line from ‘The Hudsucker Proxy’ for a moment). A bunch of gawping bystanders stand by and gawp at the main action (a park keeper rescues a boy who’s fallen through the ice of a frozen lake). They’re characterful but anonymous. Whatever happened to these figments of somebody’s imagination? What are they doing now? Still gawping?
