EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating etching "Winter, 1643" by Wenceslaus Hollar takes us back in time to the chilly streets of 17th century London. This exquisite print is part of a set depicting the four seasons, and it beautifully captures the essence of winter with its detailed portrayal of daily life during this frosty period. In the foreground, we see a fashionable female figure bundled up in luxurious fur garments for protection against the cold. Her high-heeled shoes and rosette-adorned muff add an elegant touch to her ensemble. The wintry scene is bustling with activity as a coach drawn by horses passes by, leaving behind plumes of smoke from chimneys that dot the background. Notably, on one side stands Cornhill in the City of London, while on the other side looms the first Royal Exchange. These iconic landmarks provide context to this historical snapshot. A small two-story building known as "The Tun" can be seen on the far right – once used as a prison for night walkers and individuals suspected of immorality. This etching also incorporates elements of mystery and intrigue through its depiction of masked figures wearing domino masks. Their presence adds an air of secrecy to this wintry street scene. "Winter, 1643" not only showcases Hollar's artistic talent but also serves as a window into daily life during this era. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in history and appreciate both fashion trends and societal norms from centuries past.
