EDITORS COMMENTS
August" is a captivating bookmark designed by the renowned English artist, Walter Crane, for the Scottish Widows Fund Life Assurance Society in the late 19th century. This exquisite piece, showcased here as a vintage print, is a testament to Crane's artistic mastery and the aesthetic sensibilities of the Victorian era. The bookmark, adorned with the month of August, features a charming scene of a sailing boat gracefully navigating the tranquil waters of Edinburgh's Cornhill or London's Waterloo Place. The boat, with its full sail billowing in the gentle breeze, glides effortlessly across the surface, leaving a trail of ripples behind. The serene setting is further enhanced by the vibrant hues of the sun setting on the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow over the scene. Walter Crane, a prolific and versatile artist, was known for his illustrations in children's books, as well as his designs for posters, calendars, and other commercial works. However, this bookmark, with its intricate details and delicate shading, demonstrates his ability to create fine art that transcends its functional purpose. The Scottish Widows Fund Life Assurance Society, a financial institution based in Edinburgh and London, commissioned Crane to create a series of bookmarks for their clients. Each month's design featured a unique scene, reflecting the changing seasons and the natural beauty of the British Isles. This August bookmark, with its evocative depiction of a sailing boat on a calm August day, is a perfect example of Crane's artistic vision and the enduring charm of Victorian design.
