EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a mesmerizing snapshot of late 19th-century London. Created by the talented artist Theodore Roussel, this black and white etching transports us back in time to a bustling corner where urban life meets the tranquil beauty of nature. In this scene, we see men and women strolling along the embankment, their elegant silhouettes contrasting against the grandeur of sailing ships on the water. The intricate details etched onto ivory wove paper bring every element to life – from the delicate foliage adorning railings to towering trees that frame the street. Roussel's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to this large-scale artwork. It evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era when horse-drawn carriages were still a common sight and children played freely on city streets. The image captures not only physical surroundings but also emotions - curiosity, joy, contemplation - expressed through each individual's posture and expression. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it serves as a window into history itself. As we gaze upon "The Corner of Luna Street" we are transported to another time and place – immersing ourselves in both the charm of Victorian England and Roussel's unique artistic vision.
