EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "At the window, c1860s" by Lewis Carroll, transports us back to a bygone era. The image features a man and a young girl sitting on an elegant chair near a window. Speculations suggest that the man could possibly be George Macdonald, the renowned Scottish poet and novelist of the 19th century. Alongside him sits one of his daughters. The composition exudes an air of tranquility as we witness this intimate moment captured within the confines of their home. The monochrome tones add depth and timelessness to the scene, emphasizing its historical significance. Lewis Carroll's talent for portraiture shines through in this photograph as he expertly captures not only their physical appearance but also hints at their personalities and relationship dynamics. The man's contemplative expression suggests wisdom gained from years spent immersed in literature and poetry while his daughter gazes out into the distance with curiosity, perhaps inheriting her father's love for storytelling. This print is part of "The Saturday Book", edited by Leonard Russell in 1948 – a cherished anthology celebrating British arts and culture during that decade. It serves as both a visual testament to Victorian life in Britain and a tribute to two influential figures who left indelible marks on literature: Lewis Carroll himself and George Macdonald. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of how photography can transcend time, allowing us glimpses into moments long past while igniting our imagination about lives
