EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Episodes in High Life, 1879 (1891)" by renowned artist George du Maurier takes us back to the elegant world of Victorian society. The scene unfolds within an opulent interior, where a group of well-dressed individuals engage in lively socializing. The women are dressed in exquisite evening gowns, their intricate details beautifully captured by du Maurier's skilled hand. Their fashionable attire reflects the height of Victorian style, with billowing skirts and delicate lace embellishments. One lady is seated gracefully while another stands nearby, exuding poise and sophistication. Meanwhile, the men sport dapper suits and formal attire that befit their status as gentlemen of high society. They converse animatedly with one another, adding an air of conviviality to the atmosphere. Du Maurier's satirical touch is evident in this piece as he humorously portrays various episodes from upper-class life during this era. Through his masterful engraving technique, he captures not only the physical appearance but also the essence of each character depicted. "Episodes in High Life" serves as a fascinating window into nineteenth-century London society - its customs, fashions, and social dynamics. This print transports us back in time to witness these moments frozen forever on paper; it invites us to ponder upon the intricacies of human interaction across different eras while marveling at du Maurier's artistic prowess.
