EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Antique Letter Box that has been ingeniously converted into a Humidor. Created around 1840, this stunning piece of art is painted with oil on wood by the talented artist Philip Reinagle (1749-1833). Measuring at 14x31.1x22.9 cm, it can be found in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. The English countryside comes alive through this picturesque scene depicted on the humidor. The artwork captures rural scenes and country pursuits such as fox hunting, sailing, and serene lakeside views. Its ornate decoration adds to its charm and Victorian allure. Originally used as a writing box or cigar container, this antique artifact now serves as a vessel to store cigars while adding a touch of elegance to any space it graces. With its intricate design and attention to detail, it becomes not only functional but also decorative. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable print from their collection without mentioning commercial use or any affiliation with specific companies. It allows us to appreciate the beauty of this converted letter box turned humidor and transports us back in time to experience the sophistication of Victorian England through artistry and craftsmanship.
