The Charmers, 1796
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures a delightful moment in time. In this enchanting scene, a group of children can be seen gathered outdoors, their voices harmonizing as they sing to a lady adorned in exquisite lace finery. The painting was created by Matthew William Peters, an accomplished English portrait and genre painter who later became an Anglican clergyman and chaplain to George IV. The image exudes the innocence and joy of childhood as these young singers pour their hearts out in song. Their Sunday best attire adds an air of reverence to the occasion, emphasizing the religious undertones present in the artwork. A triangle musical instrument held by one of the boys symbolizes both their musical talent and dedication to their craft. Engraved by C. Knight for publication in The Connoisseur Vol XXX in 1911, this print showcases Peters' masterful brushwork and attention to detail. It transports us back to the 18th century when charming scenes like these were cherished moments frozen in time. As we gaze upon "The Charmers" we are reminded of the power music holds over our emotions and its ability to bring people together across centuries. This timeless piece serves as a testament not only to Peters' artistic prowess but also to the enduring beauty found within religious artistry throughout history.
