EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Social Beings, 1876 (1891)", takes us back to the vibrant Victorian era. Created by the talented artist George du Maurier as part of his Society Pictures collection, this artwork captures a delightful scene at the seaside. In this charming image, we see a group of holidaymakers enjoying their time on the coast. Men and women dressed in fashionable Victorian attire stand together, embracing and hugging with joyous expressions on their faces. The beach serves as a backdrop for their friendly gathering, while bathing machines can be seen in the distance. The print beautifully encapsulates the concept of friendship and camaraderie during that era. It portrays a sense of warmth and connection among these social beings as they relish each other's company amidst an idyllic holiday setting. The attention to detail in depicting clothing styles from that period adds authenticity to this nostalgic piece. George du Maurier's skillful engraving technique brings life to every stroke captured within this monochrome masterpiece. Through satire and wit, he presents a snapshot of 19th-century society through his unique artistic lens. As we gaze upon this print today, it not only transports us back in time but also reminds us of the enduring human desire for companionship and happiness – timeless values that transcend generations.
