EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century print, titled "The Bride," is the cover for the sheet music of "The Prima Donna Waltz," created by renowned English engraver George Baxter in 1850. The image depicts a young, elegant bride standing confidently in the center, dressed in a beautiful white gown with a long veil and holding a bouquet of flowers. The intricate lettering surrounding the bride reads "Prima Donna Waltz" in capital letters, with the composer, Louis Jullien, and the publisher, Jullien and Co., also noted in elegant script. The print is a steel engraving, coloured with wooden blocks on ivory wove paper, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of the time. The Victorian-era bride is surrounded by a lush, romantic garden setting, with trees, flowers, and birds adding to the sense of beauty and celebration. The bridal theme is further emphasized by the presence of other young women in the background, dressed in various stages of wedding attire. George Baxter was a leading figure in the world of 19th century British printmaking, known for his innovative techniques and high-quality prints. This particular print is a testament to his skill and artistry, as well as the enduring appeal of the waltz as a popular dance during the Victorian era. The Prima Donna Waltz, composed by Louis Jullien, was a French musician and conductor who was known for his contributions to the world of dance music. This print serves as a beautiful reminder of the elegance and romance of the past, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery.
