GILCHRIST - A MAIDS CHOICE. Second verse of A Maids Choice, a Musical Pastoral by William Wallace Gilchrist, with illustrations by Howard Pyle, late 19th century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the late 19th century America, where love and music intertwined in a pastoral setting. The scene depicts a young maid and her suitor engaged in a flirtatious exchange amidst an idyllic countryside backdrop. The beautifully engraved illustration showcases the couple dressed in fashionable attire of the era. The woman dons an elegant gown while the man appears as a pilgrim-like figure, adding intrigue to their encounter. Their body language suggests playful banter and mutual interest. Accompanying this enchanting image is the second verse of "A Maids Choice" composed by William Wallace Gilchrist. This musical piece adds depth to the visual narrative, allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully into this romantic tale. Illustrated by renowned artist Howard Pyle, known for his decorative engravings that captured moments from history and literature with great detail and emotion. His skillful rendering brings life to both characters and scenery alike. This print offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also invites contemplation on themes such as choice, love, fashion trends of yesteryears, and cultural expressions through art forms like music. Granger Art on Demand presents this historical gem from their collection without any commercial intent but rather seeks to celebrate American heritage through artistic expression.
