EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an advertisement for the Memento, Inventions Exhibition held in South Kensington in 1885. Created by the renowned Italian artist Francesco Bartolozzi, this piece is a true testament to his mastery of engraving and graphic design. The image features a beautifully intricate design with angelic cherubs, or putti, adorning the top corners of the page. Their delicate wings and innocent expressions add a touch of ethereal charm to the composition. The central focus is on a female figure surrounded by floral decorations, symbolizing femininity and beauty. Bartolozzi's attention to detail is evident in every line and curve of this artwork. The carefully crafted engravings bring life to each element, from the flowing robes of the figures to the meticulously rendered flowers. As we delve into this historical artifact, we are transported back in time to an era when exhibitions were grand spectacles that showcased human ingenuity and creativity. This advertisement invites us to explore inventions from various fields while immersing ourselves in artistry and innovation. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage. It captures not only Bartolozzi's artistic brilliance but also reflects upon society's fascination with progress during the 19th century. In "Our Grandmothers Prints". Ye Olde London Streete comes alive once again through Bartolozzi's skillful hands. A true treasure for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike
