EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a delightful scene of croquet in the late 19th century. Painted by James Jacques Joseph Tissot, this oil on canvas artwork titled "Croquet, c. 1878" showcases a serene garden setting in St Johns Wood. The composition is filled with elements that transport us to a bygone era. A lush lawn surrounds a tranquil pond adorned with an elegant fountain, creating a picturesque backdrop for the game about to unfold. The players are dressed in Victorian attire, exuding sophistication and refinement. In the foreground, we see a young girl holding her mallet eagerly awaiting her turn while accompanied by an adorable dog. Flower pots add bursts of color and charm to the scene, enhancing its overall beauty. A hoop stands tall nearby, ready to challenge the players' skills. Tissot's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the meticulously painted clothing folds to the vibrant greenery that envelops this idyllic garden oasis. This artwork not only captures a moment of leisurely play but also serves as an exquisite representation of Victorian pastimes. Displayed at the Art Gallery of Hamilton in Ontario, Canada, this print allows us to appreciate Tissot's mastery and transports us back in time to experience the elegance and joy found within these historic games.
