About the artwork

Iconic publicity photo, colourised by hand, of 'The Kid - A picture with a smile--and perhaps, a tear'. Featuring Charlie Chaplin and Jackie Coogan.

Chaplin wrote, produced, directed, edited, and starred in The Kid, and later composed a score. Innovative in its combination of comedic and dramatic elements, The Kid is widely considered one of the greatest films of the silent era.

The film made Coogan, then a vaudeville performer, into the first major child star of the movies. Many of the Chaplin biographers have attributed the relationship portrayed in the film to have resulted from the death of Chaplin's firstborn infant son just ten days before the production began. The portrayal of poverty and the cruelty of welfare workers are also directly reminiscent of Chaplin's own childhood in London. Several of the street scenes were filmed on Los Angeles's Olvera Street, almost 10 years before it was converted into a Mexican-themed tourist attraction.
