EDITORS COMMENTS
This sketch, titled "The Season in London: In Hyde Park in the Afternoon" and drawn from life by Charles Dana Gibson in July 1897, offers a glimpse into the elegant world of London society during the early summer season. The date, July 17, 1897, marks a time when the city's grandest events and social engagements were in full swing. Hyde Park, a beloved and iconic destination for Londoners and visitors alike, serves as the picturesque backdrop for this scene. The lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and serene lake reflect the beauty and charm of the park in its prime. Gibson masterfully captures the essence of the season, with the warm sun casting long shadows and the gentle breeze rustling the leaves. The image, imported from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the fashionable attire of the era, with ladies in their finest summer dresses and gentlemen in tailored suits and top hats. The scene is alive with activity, as couples stroll along the pathways, children play near the lake, and horse-drawn carriages pass by. Gibson's skillful use of charcoal and ink brings the scene to life, transporting us back in time to an era of elegance, refinement, and the joys of the London Season. This exquisite sketch is a testament to the enduring allure of Hyde Park and the timeless tradition of capturing life's most beautiful moments through art.
