EDITORS COMMENTS
by Mrs. Humphry, also known as "Madge" of "Truth," is depicted on this vibrant and intricately designed front cover published by Ward, Lock & Company of London in 1897. The image showcases a refined and cordial greeting between a well-dressed lady and gentleman, both exuding an air of elegance and respect. The illustration, which is both illustrated and painted, is a testament to the artistic skill of the time, with intricate details in the clothing, background, and expressions of the figures. Mrs. Humphry, whose real name was Laura Elizabeth Humphry, was a prolific writer and illustrator who contributed to various magazines and publications, including "Truth," a popular weekly journal. Her work focused on social issues, manners, and etiquette, making "Manners for Men" a fitting addition to her body of work. The hardcover book, with its paper pages, would have been a prized possession for those seeking to improve their social graces and navigate the complexities of Victorian society. The illustration on the cover serves as a visual representation of the values and ideals espoused within the book's pages, emphasizing the importance of cordial and respectful interactions between men and women. The design of the cover is a beautiful blend of art and functionality, with the title and author's name elegantly displayed in script font, and the publisher's information subtly integrated into the background. Overall, this front cover is a captivating glimpse into the social norms and artistic sensibilities of the late 19th century.
