EDITORS COMMENTS
The enchanting front cover of Tatler's Christmas Number from 1950 presents a captivating scene of the iconic Tatler character, adorned in his signature tricorn hat and frock coat. This exquisite image is the result of a modern artistic technique called cloth-cut, an innovative approach that pays homage to the thirteenth-century appliqué ork method. Cloth-cut was pioneered by the talented British artist Joan Jordan, who meticulously crafted this cover using a combination of cut-out fabric pieces and intricate collage work. The technique allowed for the creation of a three-dimensional, textured effect that adds depth and allure to the image. The Christmas Number front covers of Tatler have long been a cherished tradition, and this 1950s masterpiece is no exception. The festive spirit is palpable in the rich colors and intricate details, making it a true visual delight. This cover not only represents the essence of the holiday season but also showcases the artistic ingenuity of Joan Jordan and the enduring appeal of the Tatler character. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel the magic of Christmas past and the excitement of the season to come. A beautiful reminder of the enchantment and wonder that the holidays bring, this Tatler Christmas Number cover from 1950 is a true work of art.
