The Honeymoon (oil on canvas)
RAF35703 The Honeymoon (oil on canvas) by Hannah, Robert (1812-1909); Private Collection; (add.info.: The title of the present picture seems to have a double meaning, referring both to the loving young couple and the playbill they are holding for John Tobins popular play The Honeymoon. First performed at Drury Lane in January 1805, this was constantly re-staged throughout the nineteenth century. The couple look very like Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in the 1850s, demonstrating that then, as now, the Royal Family were models of fashion.); Photo eRafael Valls Gallery, London, UK; English, out of copyright

The Honeymoon
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Robert Hannah captures a moment of love and cultural significance. In this oil on canvas masterpiece, we see a young couple immersed in their own world, holding a playbill for John Tobin's popular play "The Honeymoon". The title itself carries a double meaning, referring to both the affectionate newlyweds and the theatrical production they are about to enjoy. The couple depicted bears an uncanny resemblance to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert during the 1850s, showcasing how even then, the Royal Family set trends in fashion. Their elegant attire, complete with gloves and glasses, exudes sophistication and refinement. As they engage in conversation while peering through binoculars at something happening on stage or perhaps observing fellow theatergoers, we witness their deep connection and shared interests. It is evident that communication plays a vital role in their relationship. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only Hannah's exquisite painting but also the historical context it represents. It serves as a reminder that love transcends time and societal changes; it remains an enduring force that unites people across generations. Displayed prominently in private collections worldwide, "The Honeymoon" continues to captivate viewers with its timeless portrayal of romance intertwined with cultural significance.
