EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a lithograph print from the July 1894 issue of Harper's Magazine, published by Harper Publications in New York City. The illustration, created by renowned artist Edward Penfield, showcases a woman in full-length apparel, standing against a backdrop of a serene countryside. She is dressed in a fashionable, Victorian-era dress with a high collar and long sleeves, holding a book in one hand and gazing up at the night sky with a look of wonder and excitement. Above her head, a burst of colorful fireworks lights up the sky, adding a touch of whimsy and celebration to the scene. The lithograph, titled "Harper's July," is a beautiful example of the heritage art of lithotint, a technique that uses a single stone for both the image and the shading. The intricate details of the woman's dress, the delicate lettering of the magazine title, and the realistic rendering of the fireworks all speak to Penfield's mastery of the medium. This print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States in the late 19th century, a time of innovation and creativity in the fields of literature, art, and fashion. The image can be found in the Wallach Division Picture Collection of the New York Public Library, a treasure trove of historical and artistic treasures that continues to inspire and delight visitors to this day.
