EDITORS COMMENTS
This trade card, created by Dallinger in the 19th century, showcases the services of Davy and Berry, esteemed Book-Binder and Printer. The delicate engraving on pink paper transports us to a bygone era of British craftsmanship. The design features an enchanting landscape with an angelic figure gracefully hovering above. Symbolizing purity and divine intervention, the angel adds a touch of ethereal beauty to this advertisement. Rendered in black and white, the contrast highlights the intricate details of both the celestial being and the business information. Davy and Berry's Albion Printing Office in Norwich, Norfolk was renowned for its dedication to quality printing work during Victorian times. This trade card serves as a testament to their commitment to excellence within their profession. As we gaze upon this historical artifact now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are reminded not only of Davy and Berry's successful enterprise but also of the thriving industrial landscape that shaped 19th-century England. It is through such prints that we gain insight into past occupations and trades that were integral parts of society. With its religious undertones intertwined with commercial purpose, this trade card represents more than just advertising; it encapsulates an entire era's values, aesthetics, and aspirations.
