| Summary | "The Boy Artist" by F. M. S. is a children's tale written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around two siblings, Raymond and Madge Leicester, who navigate the struggles of life in a poor London household. Raymond, aged sixteen, is an aspiring artist who dreams of being famous, while his twelve-year-old sister, Madge, is his devoted supporter, looking after him and hoping for a better future. At the start of the story, Raymond is depicted engrossed in his painting of Madge, as they reminisce about their deceased mother and their difficult upbringing. Despite the harsh realities they face, including their father's neglect, their bond is filled with love and hope. The narrative introduces contrasting themes of familial love and aspiration against the backdrop of adversity, effectively setting the stage for their journey as they strive to achieve Raymond's artistic dreams while grappling with their precarious living conditions.
