EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art titled "Bust of Niobe's Daughter, after the Antique Head of Niobe, after the Antique". Created in 1780 by Anne Seymour Damer, a talented British sculptor from the 18th century, this terracotta masterpiece evokes a profound sense of sadness and melancholy. The photograph captures the essence of a woman's portrait bust with delicate precision. The intricate details on the sculpture highlight Damer's exceptional skill in capturing human emotions through her work. The subject is believed to be one of Niobe's daughters, an ancient Greek mythological figure known for her immense sorrow and tragedy. What makes this piece even more intriguing is its historical significance. On the back of the sculpture, we find an incised signature that reads: "Anne / Damer / 1780 / fecitad" indicating both authorship and dating. This connection to Anne Seymour Damer herself adds another layer to our understanding and appreciation for this artwork. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of Sundridge in London, this print invites us into a world where classical beauty meets British craftsmanship. It serves as a testament to Damer's talent as well as her contribution to art history during her lifetime (1748-1828)
