Harper's Christmas,
EDITORS COMMENTS
c.1890, by Edward Penfield (Published by Harper Publications, New York) In this beautiful turn-of-the-century illustration, renowned artist Edward Penfield invites us into a quintessential American Christmas scene. A woman in a stylish black velvet dress with a matching muff and hat, adorned with a red bow, stands in a snow-covered countryside. Her pet dog, a small black pup, sits obediently at her feet, while two playful puppies frolic in the snow nearby. The woman gazes off into the distance, lost in thought, as the winter sun sets behind her. This lithograph, published by Harper Publications in New York, is a testament to the heritage and traditions of the 19th century. The intricate lettering and attention to detail in Penfield's illustration are evident in the textured fabric of the woman's dress, the delicate folds of her hat, and the soft, fluffy appearance of the puppies. The wintry scene is further enhanced by the use of contrasting colors - the black and red of the woman's attire, the white of the snow, and the brown of the dog's fur. This vintage poster, part of the Wallach Division Picture Collection at the New York Public Library, is a timeless reminder of the beauty and simplicity of a bygone era. The illustration captures the essence of the Christmas season, with its emphasis on family, tradition, and the joy of the holiday season. Whether displayed in a library, museum, or private collection, this stunning work of art is sure to evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us back to a simpler time in American history.
