EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Pictorial Charades" takes us back to the Christmas season of 1883. Created by the talented artist Harry Furniss, this illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News. In this whimsical artwork, we are transported into a world of laughter and entertainment. A group of people is gathered around, engrossed in a game of charades. With their eyes fixed on each other, they eagerly await their turn to act out a word or phrase using only gestures and facial expressions. The charm lies in the cleverness behind these pictorial charades - players must decipher syllables and clues hidden within the illustrations themselves. As we observe closely, we can spot various objects and scenes that hint at different words or phrases. Furniss's attention to detail shines through as he masterfully captures the joyous atmosphere of this festive gathering. Every line etched onto paper seems to exude mirth and excitement. As we admire this enchanting print from Fine Art Finder's collection, let it remind us of simpler times when games like these brought families together during holiday celebrations. Pictorial Charades serves as a delightful reminder that even without words spoken aloud, communication can still be rich with meaning and connection.
