EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Checkmate (circa 1865)" we are transported back in time to witness a moment of intense concentration and contemplation. The London Stereoscopic Company beautifully captures the essence of a young man patiently waiting for his female counterpart to make her move in a game of chess. The image exudes motion as both players sit opposite each other, their eyes locked on the chessboard before them. The young man's focused gaze reveals his determination while he strategically plans his next move. Meanwhile, the young woman appears deep in thought, contemplating her options with an air of confidence. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into domestic life during the mid-1800s in England, where board games like chess were popular recreational pursuits. It showcases not only the leisure activity itself but also highlights the dynamics within couple relationships at that time. The archival quality of this photograph adds to its allure, allowing us to appreciate it as both an artistic piece and a historical artifact. As we observe this scene frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at how such simple moments from our past continue to resonate with us today. London Stereoscopic Company has once again demonstrated their mastery by capturing not just an image but also emotions and stories within it. This print is sure to be cherished by art enthusiasts who appreciate fine details and timeless beauty without commercial intentions or affiliations mentioned
