EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Leaves from Our Artists Sketch Book in Normandy" transports viewers to the vibrant world of 19th-century France. The engraving, created by Harry Furniss and now part of a private collection, showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the essence of everyday life. In this scene, we find ourselves immersed in a bustling café chantant, where English visitors mingle with local artists. A circle of friends gathers around a table, engrossed in conversation and laughter. Through an open door at the back, we catch a glimpse of the picturesque French countryside stretching out before us—a breathtaking view that surely inspired many artistic endeavors. The theatre's orchestra pit is visible on one side, its musicians adding melodious notes to the lively atmosphere. As our eyes wander across the image, we notice leaves scattered on tables and chairs—an indication that autumn has arrived in Normandy. Furniss masterfully captures both the duty-bound focus of these artists sketching away and their genuine enjoyment of each other's company. This snapshot offers us a window into French culture during this period—where artistry thrived alongside camaraderie—and invites us to imagine ourselves as partakers in this enchanting scene. Bridgeman Images' careful preservation ensures that this remarkable piece remains accessible for all to appreciate and be transported back to an era when creativity flourished amidst friendship and beautiful surroundings.
