EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "An Old School-Fellow" artist William Weekes takes us back in time to a nostalgic domestic scene. The print, dating back to the late 19th century, showcases the intricate details and storytelling ability of traditional engravings. The image transports us into a grand hallway adorned with elegant chairs and guarded by two doormen. In the foreground, we witness an endearing encounter between an elderly gentleman and his former schoolmate who has come to visit. Their faces light up with joy as they reminisce about their shared memories from years gone by. Weekes masterfully captures the essence of friendship and camaraderie through subtle gestures and expressions. The lines etched on their faces tell tales of a lifetime's worth of experiences, while their body language exudes warmth and familiarity. This enchanting scene not only highlights the bond between old friends but also offers a glimpse into Victorian-era society. It reminds us that even amidst opulence and formality, genuine connections can be forged that withstand the test of time. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to an era where personal relationships held great value in everyday life. "An Old School-Fellow" serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and a poignant reminder that true friendship is timeless.
