EDITORS COMMENTS
Waking up (engraving) captures the essence of a 19th-century morning routine in a master bedroom. This enchanting print, created by an English School artist, is part of a private collection and showcases the charm and simplicity of life during this era. The scene takes place in a grand chamber within one of the elegant townhouses that dotted the landscape at the time. The attention to detail in depicting this home scene is remarkable, from the carefully crafted furnishings to the exquisite upholstered goods adorning the room. In this educational illustration for Keepsake for the Young, A Book of Amusement by Aunt Friendly, we see a young boy awakening from his slumber. His tousled hair and sleepy expression suggest he has just emerged from dreams into reality. Surrounding him are other children peacefully sleeping in their beds. This engraving offers us a glimpse into childhood innocence and domestic tranquility during an earlier period. It reminds us of simpler times when homes were sanctuaries and education was imparted through books like these. The black-and-white aesthetic adds to its timeless appeal, allowing viewers to appreciate every intricate line etched by the skilled engraver's hand. 'Waking up' serves as both artistry and historical documentation, transporting us back to an era where mornings began with wonderment and curiosity.
