EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a beautifully painted cigar box adorned with scenes from Taglioni prints. Created around 1840 by an anonymous English artist, this exquisite piece of art measures 13.7x31.4x19.1 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. The intricate oil painting on fruitwood depicts various enchanting scenes, including a female ballet dancer gracefully performing, a scenic landscape, and a lively coaching scene featuring passengers and horses pulling an ornately decorated coach and four. The attention to detail is remarkable, with every brushstroke adding depth and character to this miniature masterpiece. Marie Taglioni, the renowned Italian ballerina of the 19th century, serves as inspiration for these stunning images adorning the cigar box. Her elegance and talent are captured flawlessly through this artistic interpretation. This print not only captures the beauty of this decorative item but also highlights its historical significance as part of English cultural heritage. It reminds us of the craftsmanship that went into creating such ornamental pieces during that era. Displayed against a plain background, this photograph allows us to appreciate every delicate stroke while offering insight into both artistic techniques and societal interests at that time. A true treasure preserved within Yale's collection for all art enthusiasts to admire!
