EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Her love was sought. . . By twenty beaux and more" transports us back to the enchanting world of the late 19th century. Created by the talented Randolph Caldecott in 1885 but published later in 1934, this illustration beautifully captures a scene from Oliver Goldsmith's poem "An Elegy on the Glory of Her Sex, Mrs. Mary Blaize". In this delightful artwork, we witness a lady who has become an object of desire for not just twenty suitors but even caught the attention of none other than the King himself. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life a time when courtship was filled with elegance and charm. Dressed in an exquisite gown that epitomizes Victorian fashion, our protagonist walks gracefully as admirers follow her every step. This image evokes a sense of intrigue and curiosity about Mrs. Mary Blaize's allure and charisma. Randolph Caldecott's talent shines through his masterful use of color and composition, transporting us into a world where literature meets artistry. Published in "The Panjandrum Picture Book" this print showcases Caldecott's ability to capture characters from classic works while adding his own unique touch. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of literature and its power to inspire generations across centuries. It is truly a testament to both Caldecott's artistic prowess and Goldsmith's enduring words that continue to captivate
