EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: "Allegro," Circa 1916 - A Misty Vision of a Distant Port This evocative and atmospheric print, titled "Allegro," captures the essence of a bygone era with its misty, ethereal depiction of a distant port scene. The painting, believed to be created around 1916, invites the viewer to step back in time and immerse themselves in the sights, sounds, and smells of a bustling maritime community. In the foreground, a long, trailing platform stretches out into the mist, leading the eye towards the heart of the composition. The platform, with its worn and weathered planks, seems to have been a popular spot for onlookers to gather and watch the comings and goings of the port. The tall, smoking chimneys of the industrial buildings in the background add a sense of energy and activity, while the tall sail boats moored in the harbor add a touch of romance and nostalgia. The muted colors of the print, with their soft, dreamlike quality, further enhance the sense of mystery and intrigue. The September issue of a color magazine, Volume 13, Number 9, published by George Hugo Tabor, features this image. The print, which is not to be confused with the Allegro Maritime Company, is a testament to the power of art to transport us to another time and place, and to remind us of the rich history and beauty of the world around us.
