Mr Romford at Dalberry Lees, 1865 - A Captivating Glimpse into the 19th Century Social Scene
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by renowned artist John Leech, we are transported back to the year 1865 and introduced to Mr Romford at Dalberry Lees. Taken from Robert Smith Surtees' novel "Mr. Facey Romfords Hounds" this image offers a delightful insight into the socializing customs of the era. Set against an opulent interior backdrop, illuminated by flickering candlelight, we find ourselves amidst a gathering of elegantly dressed men and women. The vibrant colors of their attire bring life to the scene as they engage in animated conversations while ascending a grand staircase. The central figure, Mr Romford himself, stands out in his distinguished evening dress - a ball gown befitting his status as a fictional character of note. As he arrives at Dalberry Lees for what promises to be an eventful night, anticipation fills the air. John Leech's masterful etching skillfully captures both the essence of each character and the spirit of the time period. Through intricate details and subtle caricature techniques, he breathes life into these figures from another century. This remarkable print serves as not only an artistic masterpiece but also as a window into history - allowing us to witness firsthand how people gathered and socialized during that enchanting era known as the nineteenth century.
