EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Hide and Seek" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of childhood games. The image showcases an interior scene where a mother and her young daughter engage in this timeless pastime. Illustrated with meticulous detail, the engraving captures the essence of social interaction and playfulness. The setting is a parlour adorned with elegant decor, reflecting the Victorian era's refined taste. The screen behind them adds an air of mystery as it becomes their hiding spot. The mother, dressed in traditional attire, watches her daughter eagerly searching for hidden companions. This artwork holds historical significance as it was featured in the Extra Supplement to the Illustrated London News on November 18th, 1882. Engraved initials L R and A J indicate its creators' names while paying homage to W B C Fyfe's original picture. Through this enchanting print from Fine Art Finder's Bernard Platman Antiquarian Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a cherished moment between parent and child. It reminds us that despite changing times and advancements in technology, simple joys like playing hide-and-seek remain universal across generations. Whether displayed within private collections or exhibited publicly, this engraving serves as both an exquisite piece of artistry and a nostalgic window into history – capturing not only German culture but also evoking memories of our own childhoods spent chasing after friends amidst laughter-filled games.
