EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting engraving titled "My Partner Fifty Years Ago" we are transported back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of childhood innocence and companionship. Created by Amedee Forestier in 1889 for The Illustrated London News, this nostalgic image evokes a sense of warmth and nostalgia. The scene unfolds with two young girls elegantly dressed in fashionable attire from the late 19th century. Their hats adorned with delicate ribbons and feathers add an air of sophistication to their appearance. One girl gracefully curtsies while her partner looks on, showcasing their impeccable manners. As we delve deeper into the details of this print, it becomes evident that these children are not mere acquaintances but rather close friends or siblings. Their bond is palpable as they stand side by side, sharing secrets and laughter amidst a backdrop of timeless beauty. Forestier's masterful technique brings every intricate detail to life - from the intricate patterns on their dresses to the gentle folds in their skirts. The artist's attention to detail transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand the elegance and grace that defined an era long gone. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times when friendship was cherished above all else. It invites us to reflect upon our own memories and relationships formed throughout our lives - partners who have stood beside us through thick and thin for fifty years or more.
