EDITORS COMMENTS
This proof print from 1899, created by George Dutch Davidson, showcases the intricate beauty of pen and ink artwork. Measuring at 14.7x12 cm, it is a remarkable piece that now resides in The McManus museum in Dundee, UK. The image depicts a stunning catalogue cover for the Dundee Graphic Arts Association. Its decoration and ornate design reflect the artistic trends of the time, showcasing elements of British art from the 19th century. The Celtic revival and arts and crafts movements are evident in the patterns and decorations adorning this exquisite piece. At its center stands a powerful female figure, exuding goddess-like qualities. She emanates strength and grace amidst a backdrop reminiscent of a grand cathedral. Surrounding her are floral designs that add an enchanting touch to this composition. This proof print serves as evidence of Davidson's exceptional talent as an artist during his short-lived life from 1879 to 1901. It was acquired by The McManus museum in 1973 with support from the National Fund for Acquisitions. A true testament to creativity and craftsmanship, this black-and-white graphic arts exhibition piece invites viewers into a world where beauty meets skillful execution. It is not just another book cover; it is an embodiment of artistry that continues to captivate audiences even over a century later.
