EDITORS COMMENTS
This frontispiece, a colour lithograph by Howard Davie, transports us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century theatre. The image showcases a woman draped in an elegant curtain as she passionately paints on her easel. Published in Souvenir or An Artists Model in 1895, this artwork brings to life the vibrant and creative atmosphere of that era. The woman's presence is both mysterious and alluring, capturing our attention with her intense focus on the canvas before her. Her artistic expression is amplified by the theatrical setting, where curtains serve as both backdrop and inspiration for her work. This juxtaposition between art and performance highlights the interconnectedness of these two forms of expression. Davie's skillful use of colour lithography adds depth and richness to this scene, enhancing its visual impact. The warm hues evoke a sense of nostalgia while also infusing the image with an air of sophistication. Through this frontispiece, we are invited into a world where artistry takes center stage – where women artists are celebrated for their talent and creativity. It serves as a reminder that throughout history, women have made significant contributions to the arts despite facing numerous challenges. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only Davie's artistic prowess but also offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when passion for art was celebrated amidst grand theatres and elaborate drapery.
