EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by Percy Tarrant that takes us back to the 19th century. This print, now part of a private collection, was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on December 27,1884. In this delightful scene, Tarrant skillfully captures the essence of Christmas festivities. The focus lies on a beautifully decorated hamper overflowing with an abundance of poultry and turkeys. These plump birds are undoubtedly destined for holiday feasts and celebrations. The attention to detail is remarkable as Tarrant portrays several animals surrounding the hamper. Farm animals such as livestock and fowls add life to the composition while a sea bird perched nearby adds an unexpected touch of wildness amidst the domestic setting. Tarrant's engraving transports us to a time when hampers filled with delectable treats were eagerly anticipated during Christmastime. It evokes feelings of warmth, joy, and anticipation for the festive season ahead. This print from Bridgeman Images serves as both a historical document capturing rural traditions and an artistic masterpiece showcasing Tarrant's talent for intricate engravings. Whether displayed in homes or galleries, "The Christmas Hamper" invites viewers to step into a bygone era where culinary delights took center stage during this special time of year.
