EDITORS COMMENTS
Grandmammas Elopement (chromolitho) captures a moment of thrilling romance and daring escape. This print, created by John Charles Dollman in 1878, depicts a scene from the heartwarming story published in The Graphic's Christmas Number that same year. In this enchanting artwork, we witness the clandestine marriage of two lovers amidst the picturesque Scottish landscape. Grandmamma and her beloved have embarked on an elopement to Gretna Green, seeking refuge from societal constraints and disapproving families. Against all odds, they find solace in each other's arms under the green canopy of nature. The vibrant chromolitho technique brings life to every detail: from the lush greens of Scotland's countryside to the flushed cheeks of our protagonists as they exchange vows. We can almost feel their hearts racing with excitement as they steal away into marital bliss. However, lurking behind them is Grandpapa - determined to put an end to their forbidden love affair. Will he catch up with them tonight? Or will their determination prevail? This print not only celebrates love but also explores themes such as rebellion against social norms and breaking free from familial expectations. It serves as a timeless reminder that true love knows no boundaries or obstacles. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork today, let us be reminded of the power of passion and resilience found within human connections.
