EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing artwork titled "Sign of the Post" by an anonymous Flemish School artist. Housed in the prestigious Groeningemuseum in Bruges, Belgium, this oil on panel masterpiece is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Flanders. The painting features a striking emblem or coat of arms that serves as a symbol for post offices during its time. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring life to this historical artifact, capturing the essence of its era. Intriguingly, amidst this emblem are various elements that add depth and intrigue to the composition. A majestic elephant stands tall, representing strength and power. Accompanying it is a dwarf figure who adds an element of whimsy and curiosity to the scene. This artwork also hints at advertising practices from yesteryears with seals and emblems subtly incorporated into its design. It transports viewers back in time when such signs were used to promote businesses or events. With horses depicted alongside other symbolic elements like earth and appearance, this painting offers a glimpse into London's bustling streets during its creation period. Perhaps it even served as an advertisement for Bailey's Olympia Kensington or P. T Barnum's shows. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this remarkable piece through their lens, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty without commercial use intentions.
