EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the beauty and charm of Roundhay Park in Leeds, England during the 19th century. The vibrant colors of this lithograph bring to life a scene filled with Victorian society members strolling around the park, while a majestic hydrogen balloon floats gracefully in the sky above. Framed in an exquisite rosewood frame, this artwork is a true testament to the romanticism and picturesque landscapes that defined the era. Roundhay Park, opened in 1872, was once owned by the Nicholson family before being transformed into a public park by the Leeds Corporation. Its grandeur attracted visitors from all walks of life who sought solace amidst its lush greenery and serene lake. However, it's worth noting that behind its idyllic facade lies a tragic history - "lovers leap" a prominent rock formation standing at 60ft tall had to be removed due to numerous suicide attempts. This print not only offers us a glimpse into Victorian society's leisurely activities but also serves as a reminder of how nature can both inspire and heal. With its cascading waterfall and tranquil surroundings, Roundhay Park remains an enduring symbol of English landscape architecture and continues to captivate audiences even today.
