1876 Ball Colombo Difficulties State Under Club House

EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving titled "Under Difficulties: Going to the State Ball at the Club House, Colombo" takes us back in time to colonial India in 1876. The image showcases a vivid scene of elegance and opulence amidst the challenges faced by those attending this prestigious event. The engraving beautifully captures the grandeur of the Club House, adorned with intricate architectural details and surrounded by lush gardens. A group of Victorian-era men and women can be seen making their way towards the ball, dressed in exquisite attire that reflects their social status. Despite its title, "Under Difficulties" there is an air of determination among these individuals as they navigate through various obstacles on their journey. Perhaps it was a muddy path or inclement weather that added an element of adventure to this otherwise glamorous affair. This historic artwork not only provides a glimpse into high society during British rule but also serves as a testament to the illustrative techniques employed during that era. The meticulous engravement technique used in creating this print adds depth and texture to every detail, transporting viewers back to a time when such craftsmanship was highly valued. As we admire this vintage masterpiece from Arkheia's Liszt Collection, let us appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance. It serves as a reminder of how art can encapsulate moments from our past while allowing us to appreciate different cultures and artistic styles across centuries.
