EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical coloured engraving titled "Happy New Year!" by Alfred Weczerzick captures the essence of celebration and joy. The artwork, part of a private collection, showcases the artist's talent in creating anthropomorphic characters with a touch of German culture. In this 19th-century masterpiece, we see an enchanting scene unfold before our eyes. A chimpanzee adorned in a top hat, sash, and medals stands proudly amidst a bed of blooming roses. With one hand raised high and the other holding onto a delicate flower, the chimp exudes elegance and charm. The clever use of anthropomorphism adds an element of surprise to this delightful composition. As we gaze at this enchanting image, we are reminded that animals can embody human qualities when portrayed through art. The intricate details in every stroke highlight Weczerzick's mastery as an engraver. The richness of colors brings life to each petal on the roses while capturing our attention with its vibrancy. This print was originally featured in Moderne Kunst in Meister-Holzschnitten (Richard Bong, Berlin), published around 1900. It serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic testament to Germany's rich cultural heritage. As we bid farewell to another year and welcome new beginnings, let us be inspired by this charming illustration. May it serve as a reminder that happiness can be found even amidst unexpected places – just like this cheerful chimpanzee wishing us all a Happy New Year
