EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to 1874 in St. Petersburg, Russia, during the grand Royal Marriage Festivities. The image showcases a series of sketches that beautifully capture various scenes and characters amidst the winter wonderland. In one sketch, an itinerant hosier is depicted with his vibrant collection of socks and stockings, braving the freezing temperatures to sell his wares. Nearby, a caregiver tenderly holds a child in her arms, providing warmth and comfort in this chilly season. The scene also includes a match boy surrounded by a bustling crowd as he tries to earn some coins by selling matches. The contrast between their warm breaths against the cold air creates an ethereal atmosphere. Amidst all this hustle and bustle, another sketch portrays an orange seller skillfully navigating through the icy streets while carrying baskets filled with juicy citrus fruits. The frozen landscape adds an enchanting touch to this vibrant display of colors. This 1874 engraving not only captures historical moments but also showcases illustrative techniques from that era. Its vintage charm transports us back in time and allows us to appreciate both the artistry and cultural significance of these sketches.
