EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned German composer, George Frederick Handel (1685-1795), who later became a naturalized British citizen. The image captures a momentous event in history - Handel's royal water concert on the Thames for King George I of England in 1717. The painting by Edouard-Jean-Conrad Hamman (1819-1888) beautifully depicts this grand occasion, with its vibrant colors and attention to detail. The scene unfolds on an elegant barge adorned with a majestic canopy, symbolizing the opulence of the era. Handel stands proudly at his throne-like seat, surrounded by musicians and rowers as they navigate along the picturesque Thames River. This unique performance takes place against an exquisite backdrop of London's exterior architecture, adding to the enchantment of the event. The composition exudes a sense of celebration and entertainment fit for royalty. Handel's musical genius is palpable as he conducts his masterpiece amidst this maritime spectacle. His music fills the air, resonating with joy and admiration from all those fortunate enough to witness this extraordinary concert. This print serves as a testament to Handel's enduring legacy and his significant contribution to classical music. It encapsulates not only his talent but also highlights the cultural exchange between Germany and Britain during that period.
