EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Carrying-Chair" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of domestic management. The image showcases an English household scene where a woman is being carried in a chair by two men. This unique mode of transportation was commonly used during that era to transport individuals within their homes or across short distances. The print, part of a private collection, exudes elegance and sophistication with its intricate details and refined composition. It was originally created as an illustration for Cassells Book of the Household in 1889, showcasing the various aspects of managing a home during that time. Digitally cleaned to enhance its clarity and preserve its historical charm, this image allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating engravings as well as gain insight into domestic life centuries ago. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors approached household tasks and highlights the importance placed on comfort and convenience even then. Brought to you by Bridgeman Images via Fine Art Finder, this print offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also invites contemplation about how society has evolved over time. Whether displayed in your living room or study area, it will surely spark conversations about history, culture, and the ever-changing dynamics within our own households.
