EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "None so deaf as those who won't hear" by Edmund Blair Leighton takes us back to the summer of 1890. The engraving, originally created for The Graphic, beautifully captures a moment filled with intrigue and romance. In this scene, we see a young woman named Rivers standing amidst a picturesque landscape. Her expression is one of longing and frustration as she gazes into the distance. It seems that she is desperately trying to convey something important to someone who refuses to listen – hence the title "None so deaf as those who won't hear". Leighton's attention to detail shines through in every stroke of his engraving technique. The lush greenery surrounding Rivers creates an enchanting backdrop for her emotional plea. As we observe her delicate posture and expressive eyes, it becomes clear that this image represents more than just a simple conversation; it symbolizes the universal struggle of being unheard. The artist's choice to depict this timeless theme resonates with audiences even today. We are reminded of our own experiences when our words fall on deaf ears or when communication breaks down in relationships. This thought-provoking piece invites us to reflect upon the importance of active listening and understanding in our daily lives. As we admire this exquisite print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us remember that true connection requires not only speaking but also truly hearing what others have to say – for none are as deaf as those who refuse to listen.
