EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "While broken tea cups, wisely kept for show, ranged o'er the chimney, glistened in a row" by William Lee Hankey takes us on a journey through time and space. The image transports us to a quaint countryside village where the remnants of a once vibrant community are frozen in time. The composition showcases an array of broken tea cups carefully arranged along the chimney, their delicate beauty shining through despite their imperfections. Each cup tells its own story, hinting at past gatherings and cherished moments shared over steaming cups of tea. Hankey's attention to detail is evident as he captures the essence of this deserted village. From the rustic fireplace to the traditional costumes worn by villagers, every element adds depth and authenticity to this scene. It is as if we can almost hear Oliver Goldsmith's words from his poem "The Deserted Village" echoing through these empty streets. In this evocative artwork, Hankey invites us to reflect on themes of loss and nostalgia while celebrating the resilience and endurance found within forgotten places. Through his masterful brushstrokes and use of color lithography techniques, he brings life back into these abandoned spaces. This mesmerizing piece serves as a reminder that even in desolation there is beauty waiting to be discovered. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into an enchanting world where brokenness becomes artistry and memories linger amidst silence.
