EDITORS COMMENTS
. This enchanting photo print, titled "Follow the Drum" takes us back in time to the vibrant Christmas celebrations of 1878. Created by George Adolphus Storey, a renowned artist of his era, this exquisite engraving captures a moment filled with joy and merriment. Intriguingly, the artwork showcases an array of women drummers adorned in fashionable attire that epitomizes Victorian elegance. Their resolute expressions and poised postures convey their determination to be part of this traditionally male-dominated realm. The rhythmic beats emanating from their drums echo through the air, captivating all who witness this extraordinary scene. As we delve deeper into this visual masterpiece, we are transported to a world where music unites people across social boundaries. The drummers' clothing reflects both contemporary fashion trends and hints at military influences prevalent during that period. The attention to detail in Storey's work is truly remarkable; every brushstroke brings life and vibrancy to each character within the composition. It is as if we can hear the laughter and feel the excitement reverberating through our souls. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, "Follow the Drum" serves as a testament to human resilience and determination – reminding us that passion knows no gender or societal constraints.
