Cold Illness January Month Muff Skating William Nelson Gardiner

EDITORS COMMENTS
"Title: January 4, 1788 - A Winter Scene of Leisure and Fashion by William Nelson Gardiner This exquisite color stipple engraving on paper, created by William Nelson Gardiner in the late 18th century, captures the essence of January in a charming and intricate depiction of a wintry scene. The image showcases a group of people enjoying the season's activities, bundled up against the cold in their fashionable attire. At the center, a man in a tall hat and a long, heavy coat, complete with a muff and a pair of skates, prepares to glide across the icy surface of a frozen pond. A woman, elegantly dressed in a voluminous gown and a warm shawl, watches him from the shore, her hands wrapped around a steaming mug. Two dogs eagerly await their masters' return, their breath visible in the crisp winter air. The scene is filled with details that evoke the spirit of the season. The trees are bare, their branches reaching towards the sky, while the ground is covered in a thick layer of snow. The sky is overcast, with a few flakes of snow beginning to fall. The overall mood is one of tranquility and enjoyment, as the people make the most of the winter weather. This print is a testament to the fashion and lifestyle of the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the past through the meticulous artistry of William Nelson Gardiner. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, fashion, or the passage of the seasons." *Note: This caption is intended for descriptive and informative purposes only and is not intended for commercial use.
