EDITORS COMMENTS
We Never Met Again," an exquisite illustration for the sheet music of the same name, was created by the renowned English artist, Ebenezer Landells, in 1850. The illustration was published alongside the poem by Edward Mordaunt Spencer and the composition by G. Herbert Rodwell in the Illustrated London News. The hauntingly beautiful image captures a man and a woman, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, standing beneath the full moon, gazing at each other with longing and regret. The man strums a guitar, his eyes fixed on the woman, who holds out her hand as if reaching for him. The moon casts a soft, ethereal glow over the scene, highlighting the intricate details of their clothing and the delicate patterns in the background. The man's attire includes a waistcoat, cravat, and trousers, while the woman wears a flowing gown with a high neckline and a full skirt. The design also features elements of astronomy, with the solar system depicted in the night sky above them. The poem, "We Never Met Again," adds to the romantic and melancholic atmosphere of the illustration. The man laments his inability to find the woman he once loved, despite his efforts to seek her out. The full moon serves as a reminder of their fleeting encounter and the passage of time. The illustration is a stunning example of 19th-century graphic design, combining elements of art, science, and music to create a captivating and timeless work. Ebenezer Landells was a prolific illustrator, known for his intricate and detailed designs. His work appeared frequently in newspapers and magazines, including the Illustrated London News. This illustration for "We Never Met Again" showcases his exceptional talent and his ability to capture the essence of a romantic and poignant moment in time.
