EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ernest" takes us back to the early 20th century. The English photographer beautifully captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing a girl and women whose names remain unknown. Their faces are framed within a circle, drawing our attention to their striking features. Intriguingly, the women hold fans adorned with letters, creating an artistic juxtaposition between words and imagery. Set against a black background, these circles of text create an enchanting visual effect that leaves blank spaces for our imagination to fill. The postcard-like composition adds nostalgia to this art deco portrait. It transports us to an era where handwritten correspondence held great significance. The typeface used on the postcard reflects the style of the time, further emphasizing its historical value. As we delve into this picture's details, we uncover hints of an art movement that defined the period from 1910 to 1939 – art deco. This photograph exemplifies how photography was embraced as an expressive medium during this influential era. Preserved in private collection until now, "Ernest" is more than just a picture; it is a testament to the power of capturing moments through photography. Bridgeman Images has brought this remarkable piece into public view so that we can appreciate its beauty and reflect upon its historical context without commercial intentions or usage in mind.
