EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to a remarkable moment in history - a concert at the Royal Hospital for Incurables at Putney. The image, captured by Robert Barnes in 1892, showcases the power of music to bring joy and respite even in the face of adversity. The scene is bustling with life as a diverse crowd gathers within the grand architecture of the hospital building. Patients, dressed in their finest clothing, eagerly await the performance that promises to uplift their spirits. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as musicians prepare to fill the air with melodies that will momentarily transport these incurable patients away from their physical ailments. The graphic details depicted in this print allow us to observe not only the architecture but also glimpse into fashion trends of that era. Each individual present contributes to an intricate tapestry of hope and resilience; they are united by their shared experience and desire for solace through music. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we cannot help but be moved by the strength and determination displayed by both performers and audience members alike. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder that art has always played an essential role in healing hearts and minds throughout time. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with a window into our past, reminding us of humanity's enduring spirit even amidst challenging circumstances.
