EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the elegance and anticipation of a woman in an evening gown at a ball in the early 20th century. The artist, Harrison Fisher, expertly portrays the opulence and privilege associated with upper-class society during this time. The woman is depicted sitting gracefully, exuding poise and sophistication as she waits for her dance partner. Her exquisite gown drapes around her figure, showcasing the intricate details of its design. The delicate fabric shimmers under the soft glow of candlelight, emphasizing its luxurious quality. In this image, we catch a glimpse into daily life among the wealthy elite. Attending balls was not only a form of entertainment but also an opportunity to display one's social status and connections. As she sits patiently against a wallflower backdrop, it becomes evident that our subject may be longing for someone to invite her onto the dance floor. Fisher's attention to detail extends beyond clothing; he skillfully captures every nuance of emotion through his portrayal of body language and facial expression. This lithograph serves as both an artistic representation of fashion trends from that era and as a window into societal norms surrounding class distinctions. As we admire this print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and allure of high society events like balls - where choreography met romance on elegant parquet floors amidst whispers of untouchable glamour.
