1. Title: A Timeless Treasure of Artistic Expression: Walnut Wood Box of Oil Colours, circa 1880s This photograph showcases a beautifully preserved Walnut Wood Box of Oil Colours from the late Victorian era, circa 1880s. The image, brought to us by Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time, inviting us to explore the world of art supplies as it once was. The Walnut Wood Box, with its rich, dark finish and intricate details, is a testament to the craftsmanship of the Reeves Sons & Co., a renowned art supplies company of the time. The box, adorned with a leather handle and a sturdy hook, is designed to be portable, allowing artists to carry their essential oil colours with them wherever they went. The box is filled with round oil colour tubes, neatly arranged, each one ready to be squeezed onto the palette for mixing and application. The tubes, with their tight seals, ensured that the pigments remained fresh and vibrant, ready to bring the artist's vision to life. The box also includes a palette, providing a smooth, level surface for mixing colours. The palette, like the box, is made of walnut wood, ensuring a perfect match and a harmonious blend of form and function. The photograph offers a glimpse into the world of the late Victorian artist, where the Walnut Wood Box of Oil Colours was an indispensable companion. It represents the dedication, passion, and creativity that defined the artistic community of the time, and continues to inspire artists today. This photograph is not only a beautiful piece of art in its own right, but also a window into the past, offering us a glimpse into the world of art supplies as it once was. It is a reminder of the enduring appeal of art and the tools that bring it to life.
