EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Christmas Presents (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing the essence of a joyous holiday season. The image showcases an array of beautifully wrapped gifts, carefully selected for their recipients' delight. This enchanting engraving was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on December 5,1896. The room depicted in the print is filled with anticipation and excitement as Christmas draws near. Each present holds its own allure, representing various arts and crafts that were highly valued during that era. From a stunning diamond lizard tie brooch to a delicate bee preserve dish and an intricately drawn clock, these gifts symbolize both luxury and craftsmanship. Amongst the treasures are exquisite pieces of jewelry from the Association of Diamond Merchants, including a watch brooch adorned with fine olivine stones by Sir John Bennett. A Worcester china tea basket adds elegance to this collection while highlighting the importance of British craftsmanship. The presence of fruit preserves such as blackberry and berry dishes reminds us not only of indulgent treats but also emphasizes the significance of food supply during this festive time. These botanical elements connect art with natural history and science. As we admire this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images, it transports us back in time to experience the magic and wonderment associated with exchanging thoughtful Christmas presents during an era where tradition met innovation.
