EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite bookmark, designed by renowned English artist Walter Crane for the Scottish Widows Fund Life Assurance Society in the late 19th century, showcases a charming autumnal scene. The month of October is depicted through the image of a woman in Victorian attire, holding a cornhusk basket and standing beside a horse, both adorned with autumn leaves. The horse, with its flowing mane and tail, seems to prance forward, adding a sense of liveliness to the scene. The background features the Scottish Widows Fund Life Assurance Society's logo, with the motto "Edinburgh and London" inscribed below. The design is reminiscent of the Victorian era's financial and artistic sensibilities, making it a beautiful and functional addition to any book or journal. The intricate details of the illustration, from the delicate folds of the woman's dress to the intricate patterns on the horse's harness, demonstrate Crane's exceptional talent as a graphic artist. This bookmark is not only a testament to Crane's artistic prowess but also a lovely representation of the autumn season and the passage of time.
