EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the 19th century transports us back in time to Balmoral, Scotland. The image captures a moment of social interaction as an elderly woman pays a morning call. Dressed in traditional Victorian attire, she exudes elegance and grace with her flowing dress, apron, and bonnet adorned with delicate lace. The woman carries a parasol to shield herself from the gentle rays of sunlight that filter through the tartan patterned fabric overhead. Her presence is both dignified and warm, reflecting the refined manners of the era. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this engraving. The monochrome palette adds depth and texture to each element depicted - from the intricate folds of her clothing to the ornate patterns on her hat. Balmoral Castle stands majestically in the background, nestled amidst Aberdeenshire's picturesque landscape. This iconic landmark served as Queen Victoria's beloved retreat during her reign. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of an age gone by; where visiting etiquette was cherished and connections were nurtured through personal encounters such as these morning calls. It serves as a poignant reminder that even in our fast-paced modern world, there is value in taking moments for genuine human connection.
