EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "At the bookstall" takes us back in time to the bustling scenes of a late 19th century/early 20th century book market. The artwork, created by an anonymous European School artist, captures the essence of a bygone era where libraries and bookstalls were cherished places for people from all walks of life. In this vibrant image, we see sellers and customers alike engrossed in their search for literary treasures. The salesman behind the counter is attentively assisting his patrons, while collectors browse through shelves filled with books of various genres. Victorian-era individuals can be spotted among the crowd, adding an air of nostalgia to this historical snapshot. The aging textbooks on display tell stories not only through their content but also through their worn-out covers and yellowed pages. This piece serves as a reminder that books have been cherished throughout ages as gateways to knowledge and entertainment. "At the bookstall" transports us back in time to witness a moment frozen in history - when literature was valued above all else. It invites us to appreciate our present-day access to vast digital libraries while reminding us of the charm and allure that physical books hold even today.
