EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a section of the Tijou Screen, a magnificent wrought iron masterpiece designed by the Huguenot ironworker Jean Tijou in the late 17th century. Originally created for the gardens at Hampton Court Palace in west London, this particular etching depicts one of the twelve sections that adorned this exquisite screen. The Tijou Screen holds great historical significance as it was later lent to the South Kensington Museum (now known as the Victoria & Albert Museum) by Queen Victoria herself when George III remodeled Hampton Court Palace's gardens in the late 18th century. After undergoing restoration, it found its way back to its original position at the end of Privy Garden, overlooking the majestic River Thames. Intricately decorated with baroque-era motifs and featuring an enchanting harp-like design, this piece is not only a testament to Tijou's exceptional craftsmanship but also serves as a symbol of England's rich artistic heritage. The photograph captures every delicate detail and brings to life both its decorative qualities and architectural splendor. Preserved within "The South Kensington Museum" a book published in 1881 containing engraved illustrations and descriptions of artworks from what is now known as V&A Museum, J Brooke's print allows us to appreciate this extraordinary artifact even centuries after its creation. It stands as a reminder of how art can transcend time and continue to inspire awe and admiration for generations to come.
