1850 Engraving Celebration Majority Towers Assembling Pitmen Poynton Tenantry Vern
EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print titled "The Tenantry and Pitmen Assembling at 'the Towers' at Poynton, Celebration of the 'majority' of the Hon. A. H. Vernon" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created in 1850, this engraved image showcases an illustrative technique that was popular during the Victorian era. The scene depicts a gathering of tenantry and pitmen, coming together at the grand estate known as "the Towers" in Poynton. This assembly is held to celebrate the coming-of-age or majority of the honorable A. H. Vernon, whose presence must have been highly esteemed by those present. The engraving beautifully captures both the architectural splendor of "the Towers" and the diverse group assembled for this joyous occasion. The attention to detail highlights not only the artistic skill but also provides valuable insights into social dynamics and cultural practices from that time period. With its retro-styled aesthetic, this print transports us back to a bygone era when engravements were cherished as works of art themselves. It serves as a reminder of how art can preserve moments in history while simultaneously evoking nostalgia for simpler times. As part of Liszt Collection's vast archives, this historical gem offers viewers a glimpse into Victorian arts and culture through an exquisite lens.
