EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "First Person Singular" transports us back to the late 19th century, capturing a moment in time when illustrations were cherished and admired. Created by Arthur Hopkins, an esteemed artist of his era, this engraving was originally featured in The Graphic on October 10,1885. The image portrays a scene filled with intrigue and mystery. A man is depicted sitting at a desk, engrossed in deep thought as he writes with great concentration. The partnership between the drawn figure and the written word is beautifully illustrated here, showcasing the power of imagination and storytelling. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but suppose what thoughts are running through the protagonist's mind. Is he crafting an enthralling tale? Or perhaps he is dissolving into his own world of creativity? The use of frost-like patterns surrounding the central figure adds another layer of enchantment to this artwork. It symbolizes both fragility and resilience - qualities often associated with artists who dare to explore new realms through their work. "First Person Singular" pays homage to David Christie Murray's novel by the same name – a renowned piece of literature from that period. This print serves as a visual representation of Murray's exploration into self-reflection and introspection. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem for future generations to appreciate its artistic brilliance. As we admire it today, let us celebrate not only its aesthetic value but also its ability to transport us back in time where artistry
