EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1891 engraving, titled "A Present from the Queen to the Lepers of Robben Island, the Presentation of Her Majesty's Portrait to the Asylum: The Unveiling Ceremony in the Large Hall" takes us back in time to witness a remarkable moment in history. The image showcases an illustrative technique that beautifully captures this significant event. In this retro-styled vintage print, we are transported to Robben Island, where Queen Victoria herself presents a heartfelt gift to those afflicted with leprosy. The scene unfolds within the grandeur of a large hall at the asylum. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and gratitude as her majesty's portrait is unveiled before these marginalized individuals. The engravement skillfully portrays both Victorian arts and culture while highlighting an act of compassion and empathy towards those often forgotten by society. It serves as a poignant reminder that even during challenging times, acts of kindness can bridge divides and bring hope. This historical artwork from Liszt Collection allows us to reflect on our collective past and appreciate how far we have come in terms of understanding and supporting marginalized communities. It reminds us that art has always played a vital role in capturing significant moments, preserving them for future generations.
