EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 20th century photograph, titled "The Sonnet," captures the essence of aristocratic elegance and the timeless beauty of a medieval garden. The grand lady, dressed in rich, red velvet and adorned with intricately plaited hair, sits serenely on a stone bench, her regal bearing a testament to her noble status. Her lady-in-waiting, clad in a simpler yet colourful costume, stands attentively by her side, her hands folded in a gesture of respect and readiness to serve. The garden around them is a riot of colour, with pink and red roses dominating the scene. The lady's hand reaches out to touch a rose, her expression thoughtful as she contemplates the poetry of the moment. The atmosphere is one of courtly refinement and quiet contemplation, transporting us back to the renaissance era of poetry and aristocratic grace. The photograph, from the Peter & Dawn Cope Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a stunning example of the beauty and elegance of a bygone era. The use of soft lighting and the rich colours of the costumes and flowers add to the dreamlike quality of the image, making it a captivating and inspiring work of art in its own right.
