"Bored" is a renowned illustration by the American artist Charles Dana Gibson, who is best known for creating the iconic "Gibson Girl" image that became a symbol of feminine beauty and independence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Created in 1910, "Bored" captures the essence of the Gibson Girl, portraying a young woman in a moment of ennui. The illustration is a pen-and-ink drawing, a medium in which Gibson excelled, allowing him to render intricate details and subtle expressions with remarkable precision.

The subject of "Bored" is a quintessential Gibson Girl, characterized by her elegant attire, poised demeanor, and an air of sophistication. She is depicted seated, with her chin resting on her hand, gazing off into the distance with a look of disinterest. This portrayal not only highlights Gibson's skill in capturing human emotion but also reflects societal attitudes of the time, where women of the upper class often found themselves confined to roles that offered little intellectual or emotional stimulation.

Gibson's work, including "Bored," played a significant role in shaping the cultural landscape of the early 20th century. The Gibson Girl became an aspirational figure, representing a blend of beauty, independence, and social grace. "Bored" is particularly notable for its commentary on the limitations placed on women, subtly critiquing the societal norms that led to such moments of idle boredom.

The illustration was widely published in magazines such as Life, where Gibson's work frequently appeared, reaching a broad audience and cementing his influence on American visual culture. Today, "Bored" remains a significant piece in the study of early American illustration and the cultural history of the Gibson Girl, offering insights into the gender dynamics and social expectations of the era.
