EDITORS COMMENTS
Madame Leroux" by Francis Eleanor Trollope, captured in this 1890 photograph by Percy Macquoid, showcases the intriguing moment between Rushmere and Zephany, two captivating characters from the Victorian era. The scene takes place indoors, with Rushmere, a man with a thoughtful expression, abstractedly watching the smoke from his cigarette rise towards the ceiling. His casual posture, with legs crossed and arms folded on the table, adds to the relaxed and introspective atmosphere of the image. Meanwhile, Zephany, a young boy with an intense and mobile face, leans forward, completely engrossed in the scene before him. His posture mirrors Rushmere's, but his gaze is fixed on the smoky atmosphere created by the cigarette. The contrast between the two characters, their ages and expressions, adds depth to the image and invites the viewer to ponder the nature of their relationship. This evocative photograph, published in "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper," is a testament to the power of literature and the arts to transport us to another time and place. The atmospheric black and white composition, with its smoky interior and intriguing characters, invites us to imagine the story behind the scene and to appreciate the beauty and nuance of the 19th century. Percy Macquoid, the talented photographer, expertly captures the mood and essence of the moment, making "Madame Leroux" a timeless work of art that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
