EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting duo-colour illustration by E.H. Shepherd, titled 'A Courtship Scene,' transports us back to the idyllic summer of 1921. The young man, dressed in a smart blazer, gazes lovingly at his young companion, who is elegantly shielded from the sun by an enormous parasol. The playful use of parasols as a symbol of courtship and protection adds to the romantic atmosphere of the scene. In the lush, green background, their friends can be seen engaged in a spirited game of tennis, adding a delightful sense of camaraderie and joy to the setting. The vibrant colours and intricate details of the illustration perfectly capture the essence of a leisurely, sun-soaked afternoon in the early 20th century. The young couple's tender moment, surrounded by the laughter and energy of their friends, encapsulates the beauty and charm of a blossoming romance. E.H. Shepherd's illustration, published by the Illustrated London News Ltd in 1921, is a captivating reminder of a simpler time, where the pleasures of nature, friendship, and love were cherished and celebrated. This timeless image invites us to reflect on the enduring power of human connection and the joy of shared experiences.
