EDITORS COMMENTS
Blind Love, a captivating engraving by Amedee Forestier after Wilkie Collins, takes us on a journey through the complexities of human relationships. This poignant image, part of The Illustrated London News in 1889, beautifully captures the essence of domestic scenes and the emotional turmoil that can arise within them. In this rushed household, we witness a weary wife overcome with fatigue as she sits on the edge of her bed. Her face reflects both weariness and devotion as she gazes towards her husband who is blindfolded. The symbolism behind this blindfold speaks volumes about love's ability to transcend physical limitations and see beyond appearances. The attention to detail in the furniture and furnishings adds depth to the narrative. Every element seems carefully chosen to enhance our understanding of their lives together - from the lifted curtains that suggest glimpses into their shared world, to the well-worn bed that bears witness to countless nights spent side by side. Wilkie Collins' literary genius shines through this engraving as it invites us into an intimate space where emotions are laid bare. It reminds us that love encompasses not only joy but also sacrifice and challenges faced within our own homes. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece for future generations to appreciate its beauty and significance. As we gaze upon 'Blind Love, ' we are reminded of how art can capture profound human experiences with such grace.
