Cherry Ripe
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating Victorian-era image by renowned English painter John Millais, as featured in The Graphic Christmas issue of 1880. The enchanting portrait showcases Miss Edith Ramage, a relative of William Luson Thomas, the founder of The Graphic magazine. Edith was brought to Millais' studio wearing the very costume she had donned at a fancy dress ball. The resulting artwork, with its rich colors and sentimental charm, proved to be an instant hit when published in The Graphic. The popularity of "Cherry Ripe" was such that the copyright was eventually acquired by Pears, who had previously purchased Millais' painting "Bubbles." This cherubic little girl, adorned in her mob cap and holding a ripe cherry, became a cherished symbol of the holiday season for The Graphic's readership. As The Graphic celebrated its fiftieth anniversary in 1919, "Cherry Ripe" was once again showcased in the Christmas Number, paying homage to the magazine's storied history. This evocative and beloved image continues to capture the hearts of viewers, offering a glimpse into the past and the enchanting allure of a bygone era.
