EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "The Christmas Waits" transports us to a snowy winter scene filled with the enchanting melodies of carol music. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 20th century, this image captures the essence of holiday cheer and musical tradition. In this picturesque setting, musicians gather together, braving the cold weather as they play their instruments with passion and skill. The snowflakes gently fall around them, creating a magical ambiance that enhances the festive atmosphere. Clad in warm coats and hats, these talented individuals showcase their talents on various instruments including oboe, violin, bassoon, and trumpet. "The Christmas Waits" was originally featured as an illustration for Pears Annual in 1914. This particular print has been retouched to remove text but still bears the signature "FD". Its inclusion in a private collection speaks to its historical significance and artistic value. As we admire this beautiful artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens through Look and Learn's lens (not mentioning commercial use), we are reminded of how music can transcend time and bring joy even amidst freezing temperatures. It serves as a reminder of cherished traditions during Christmastime when communities would come together to celebrate through song. This print is not only a visual delight but also offers insight into our history—showcasing both historic attire worn by musicians during such performances as well as capturing the spirit of camaraderie that comes from sharing music with others during this special season.
