EDITORS COMMENTS
A Blast from the Past: The Energetic Newsvendor of 1813, as Depicted by Ethel Parkinson in 1902 This photograph print, created by the talented British artist Ethel Parkinson in 1902, transports us back in time to the bustling streets of the early 19th century. The image, titled "Newsvendor," showcases a dedicated newsvendor in the act of blowing his horn to attract the attention of potential customers. Dressed in the fashion of the era, the newsvendor wears a long, double-breasted coat and a top hat adorned with a ribbon. His face is expressive and animated, conveying a sense of excitement and urgency as he blows his horn with all his might. The scene is set against a backdrop of a busy urban environment, with tall buildings and narrow streets, adding to the sense of energy and movement. The intricate details of the print, from the folds of the newsvendor's coat to the textures of the buildings, showcase Ethel Parkinson's exceptional artistic skill. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of newsvendors and their role in disseminating information to the masses before the advent of mass media. The image is a testament to the importance of communication and the human spirit of enterprise, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical art or prints. Ethel Parkinson's "Newsvendor" is not only a beautiful work of art but also a reminder of the rich history and traditions that have shaped our world. This print is a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for history, art, or the simple joys of a bygone era.
