EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The New York Sunday Herald," was published on February 2, 1896, and created by the renowned American artist, Charles Hubbard Wright. The image is a striking example of the graphic design and illustration techniques popular during the late 19th century in the United States. The poster features an illustration of French author Paul Bourget, with the title "Tragic Idyll" prominently displayed in bold, capitalized letters. The image is divided into two sections, with the left side depicting a somber scene of a young woman in grey, mourning the loss of a loved one, while the right side shows a crowd of people, including a young woman in a yellow dress, gathered around a newspaper stand, eagerly reading the latest edition of the New York Herald. The use of contrasting colors, such as grey and yellow, adds depth and visual interest to the poster. The lettering is a beautiful example of Western script, with each letter carefully crafted and meticulously placed. The overall design is a testament to the artistry and creativity of the time, showcasing the rich heritage of graphic design and illustration in the late 19th century. This photograph is part of the Wallach Division Picture Collection at the New York Public Library, a vast repository of historical images and visual materials. It is a reminder of the power of the press to capture the attention and imagination of the public, and the enduring influence of literature and art on our culture and society.
