EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1893 showcases the unique art of tattooing as demonstrated by Mr and Mrs Frank Burgh in the United States. The image, captured by an anonymous American photographer of the 19th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into a time when body art was still considered unconventional. In this print, we see Mr and Mrs Burgh proudly displaying their intricate tattoos, which serve as both personal adornments and expressions of love. Their bodies are adorned with delicate forget-me-not flowers, symbolizing eternal remembrance and affection. Surrounding these floral designs are biblical quotations and religious imagery such as the Last Supper and Jesus Christ himself. The composition is richly detailed, highlighting not only the decorative nature of these tattoos but also their moral significance. Each design tells a story - a testament to piety, charity, and faithfulness. It serves as a reminder that body decoration can be more than just aesthetic; it can convey deep-seated values and beliefs. This lithograph provides us with valuable insight into the history of tattooing in America during this era. It challenges our preconceptions about body art while showcasing its ornamental beauty. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded that tattoos have long been an integral part of human expression across cultures throughout history.
