EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning mirror in a repousse frame, adorned with intricate peacock designs. Created around 1902 by the talented artist Morris, Talwin, this metal masterpiece measures 56x35.6 cm and is currently housed at the Art Gallery and Museum in Kelvingrove, Glasgow. The art nouveau influence is evident in this piece, as it embodies the secession jugendstil movement of that era. The ornate decorative details bring life to the frame, featuring relief images of birds, elephants, dwarfs, seals, horses and more. The craftsmanship is truly remarkable. This photograph takes us back to a time when advertising played an important role in society. It reminds us of P. T Barnum's famous show at Olympia Kensington on January 14th 1893 where various garments were showcased including coats, jackets and waterproof capes. Notably featured are advertisements for Henry Heath's hat shop on Oxford Street which offered a wide range of headwear from yachting caps to straw top hats. The whole window display exudes a gothic charm that adds depth to this historical moment captured through photography. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this artistic treasure for all to admire without any commercial intentions. This print transports us into an enchanting world where artistry meets functionality and invites us to appreciate the beauty found within everyday objects like mirrors framed with such exquisite detail.
