EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Scribner's for October" by Edward Penfield, dates back to the late 19th century, specifically between 1890 and 1907. Published by Harper Publications in New York, this halftone photomechanical print showcases two engaging figures set against a rich, autumnal background. The scene unfolds in a rustic setting, with a man and a woman dressed in the fashion of the era, standing before a backdrop of vibrant orange and red leaves. The man, a fiddler, wears a suit and top hat, while the woman, a graceful dancer, dons a flowing, elegant dress. The man plays a violin, its strings vibrating in harmony with the lively melody that seems to fill the air. The title "Scribner's" is prominently displayed at the top of the poster, referencing the renowned publishing house, Harper Brothers. The intricate lettering and ornate border add to the overall charm and allure of the piece. This image, part of the Wallach Division Picture Collection at the New York Public Library, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 19th century. The use of halftone printing technology, which allowed for a wide range of tonal values and shading, adds depth and texture to the image, making it a true masterpiece of the era. Whether you're a fan of American history, art, or simply appreciate the beauty of a bygone era, this print by Edward Penfield is sure to inspire and delight.
