EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London, specifically Wigmore Street. The focal point of the image is an elaborate advertisement for renowned piano maker John Brinsmead and Sons. This advert, featured in The Illustrated London News on December 21st, 1889, captures the essence of Christmas festivities with its ornate design. The enchanting scene showcases a beautifully crafted grand piano adorned with festive decorations. Positioned next to it stands a stylishly dressed gentleman, seemingly lost in the melodic world created by this exceptional instrument. The soft glow from a nearby lamp casts gentle shadows on his elegant attire as he indulges in the harmonious notes emanating from the keys. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every line meticulously etched to bring life to each element within the composition. From the intricate patterns on clothing to the delicate curves of musical instruments, every aspect has been carefully considered. This print not only serves as an advertisement but also transports us back in time, allowing us a glimpse into Victorian-era London and its love affair with music. It reminds us that even amidst bustling city life, there are moments when we can find solace and joy through artistry and craftsmanship. Bridgeman Images has once again captured history's beauty through their collection of fine art prints like this one – preserving these timeless treasures for generations to come.
