EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Page of Advertisements" takes us back to the 19th century when print media reigned supreme. The image showcases a collection of advertisements that graced the pages of The Graphic on August 3,1889. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are transported to a time when advertising was an art form in itself. Sulpholine soap promises radiant skin, while umbrellas offer protection from the elements. The Midland Counties Watch boasts precision and elegance, while Duchess anti-corpulence pills claim to help shed unwanted pounds. A plethora of products and services vie for attention on this page: jewelry companies entice with their sparkling creations; the Medical Battery Co offers innovative scientific instruments; Samuel Fox tempts buyers with his fashionable black serges; Negretti provides stylish accessories such as elegant pills by Dr. Gordon. Intriguing names like Carrs Stamped Ladder Web and Beethams Capillary Hair Fluid pique our curiosity about forgotten inventions of yesteryear. Meanwhile, Pears Soap stands out as a timeless classic amidst this sea of offerings. The advertisement also reminds us of Europe's rich cultural heritage with references to Corsica and France's overseas departments and territories. It serves as a reminder that even in the realm of commerce, art can transport us beyond borders. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem through their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing us to appreciate not only its aesthetic value
