EDITORS COMMENTS
This pen-and-ink drawing, titled "Couple Reading, 1876" is a masterpiece by the talented artist George du Maurier. Created in England during the late Victorian era, this artwork beautifully captures a scene of romance and leisure. Set against the backdrop of a picturesque beach and a steamboat on the horizon, we see an elegant couple engrossed in their reading. The man sits comfortably on a deckchair with his pipe in hand, while the woman leans against him under an umbrella. Their shared love for literature is evident as they immerse themselves in their books. Du Maurier's attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke of his pen brings life to this enchanting moment. From the intricate patterns on their clothing to the expressions on their faces, he skillfully conveys both intimacy and tranquility. This drawing not only showcases Victorian fashion but also highlights literacy as an essential aspect of society during that time. It reminds us of how reading was cherished as a pastime and symbolized intellectual pursuits. Now preserved through this stunning print from Granger Art on Demand, "Couple Reading" allows us to appreciate du Maurier's talent and transports us back to a bygone era where love blossomed amidst literary adventures at the seashore.
