EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a glimpse into the past, showcasing a cluttered sideboard at the Westmoreland Davis residence in Tuxedo Park, New York. Taken in 1899 by the renowned Byron Company, this silver gelatin print measures 20.3x25.4 cm and is now housed at the Museum of the City of New York. The image reveals an abundance of intricate details that make up this elaborate display. The sideboard overflows with various objects such as relief sculptures, vases, plates, candlestick holders, and other metal hollowware items. Supporting figures stand proudly amidst twisted columns while dishes are stacked precariously high. The composition exudes a sense of crowdedness as every inch of space on the sideboard is utilized to showcase these cherished possessions. The clutter creates an intriguing juxtaposition between order and chaos, offering a fascinating insight into Victorian-era aesthetics. Through this photograph's monochromatic lens, we can appreciate not only the craftsmanship evident in each individual piece but also gain a deeper understanding of how people adorned their homes during this period. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable snapshot from history for us to marvel at today. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our modern minimalistic sensibilities; there is beauty to be found in embracing an opulent abundance within our living spaces.
