EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a serene moment in time, transporting us to an era where simplicity and contemplation reigned supreme. This photo print, taken by Charles James Lewis in the 19th century, showcases a private collection that exudes timeless charm. The scene unfolds within the cozy confines of an inviting room adorned with lush green plants and bathed in soft natural light streaming through leaded glass windows. A woman sits comfortably near the window, engrossed in her book as she seeks solace and knowledge. Her walking stick leans against a nearby chair, hinting at her adventurous spirit and independence. A faithful canine companion rests peacefully at her feet, providing loyal company while she immerses herself in literature's embrace. The dog's presence adds warmth to this intimate tableau; their bond is evident as they share this tranquil space together. Every detail within this composition speaks volumes about life's simple pleasures: from the carefully placed pot adorning the sill to the picturesque view beyond – perhaps offering glimpses of bustling streets or crashing waves along Hastings' coast. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this snapshot of history for all art enthusiasts to enjoy. "Reading by the Window, Hastings" invites us into a world where time stands still - reminding us of our own need for introspection amidst today's fast-paced society.
