EDITORS COMMENTS
This group portrait captures the Rooke family in their elegant home in Mount Park, Ealing, during the late 19th century. Painted by Thomas Matthews Rooke, this watercolor on paper print showcases a moment frozen in time for Alfred Rooke and his loved ones. The composition of the painting reveals a glimpse into the lives of this affluent English family. The room is adorned with bookcases filled with literary treasures and various decorative objects that reflect their refined taste. A cozy fireplace takes center stage, providing warmth and comfort to those gathered around it. The subjects are arranged harmoniously within the frame, showcasing both men and women engaged in different activities. Craftswomen can be seen working diligently on artistic projects while others enjoy musical performances or engage in conversation surrounded by lush houseplants. Every detail within this artwork tells a story - from the carefully curated furnishings to the personal effects scattered throughout the room. It offers us a window into Victorian England's society and its emphasis on culture, refinement, and familial bonds. Preserved at The Geffrye Museum of Home in London, this remarkable piece was acquired through generous support from organizations such as Art Fund, V&A Purchase Grant Fund, and Friends of Geffrye Museum. This photograph print allows us to appreciate not only Rooke's artistic talent but also provides an invaluable historical document capturing an intimate moment shared by one extraordinary family.
