EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Mahogany and Deal Painters Easels, circa 1880s. This vintage photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases a selection of beautifully crafted painting easels that were popular among artists during the late Victorian era. The Mahogany and Deal Painters Easels are a testament to the artisanal skills of the Reeves Sons, a renowned supplier of artists' materials during that period. The image features a variety of easels, each with its unique charm and character. The Mahogany easels, with their rich, dark wood grain, exude an air of sophistication and elegance, while the Deal easels, with their lighter, more rustic appearance, offer a more casual and portable solution for artists on the go. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the artist's world of the 1880s. The easels are folded and stacked neatly, suggesting that they have been recently used or are being prepared for transport. The presence of a catalog in the foreground hints at the importance of the Reeves Sons' catalog in providing artists with the necessary supplies to create their masterpieces. The prices listed on the catalog add an intriguing layer to the image, offering a glimpse into the cost of these essential tools for artists during that time. The Mahogany Easel, priced at 12 guineas, and the Deal Easel, priced at 6 guineas, were significant investments for artists, reflecting the value placed on their work and the importance of having the right tools to bring their visions to life. This photograph is a fascinating reminder of the dedication and craftsmanship that went into creating the tools that enabled artists to express their creativity during the late Victorian era. It's a captivating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the world of art and artists during a time when the art scene was flourishing.
