EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "English Society" and published by Harper & Brothers in New York around 1897, showcases the elegant and refined nature of English gentlemen as depicted by renowned artist George Du Maurier and illustrated by Edward Penfield. The image features a solitary figure, dressed in the height of English fashion, looking directly at the viewer with a confident and self-assured expression. The use of black and white lithography adds to the image's timeless and classic appeal, while the intricate lettering and ornate border further emphasize the heritage art and literary significance of the piece. George Du Maurier, a British author and artist, was well-known for his satirical and observational works, often focusing on the nuances of English society. This lithograph, published in America by Harper & Brothers, likely served as an illustration for one of Du Maurier's works or as a standalone piece of art. The gentleman's direct gaze and the dark background create a sense of intimacy and intrigue, inviting the viewer to ponder the man's story and the world he inhabits. The New York Public Library's impressive collection of Heritage Images offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to explore the rich history of art, literature, and culture. This particular piece, with its beautiful composition and intricate details, is a testament to the enduring allure of the English gentleman and the captivating artistry of George Du Maurier and Edward Penfield.
