EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 19th-century print titled "Approach to Christmas" artist George Hunt beautifully captures the essence of a winter day in an urban setting. The scene is filled with anticipation as snowflakes gently fall from the sky, creating a wintry wonderland. Transported back in time, we witness horse-drawn carriages making their way through the snowy streets, while passengers wave and children play joyfully in the snow. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia, reminding us of simpler times when Christmas was celebrated with fervor and excitement. The grand townhouses lining the road add to the charm and elegance of this bygone era. As we observe this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that religion played an important role during Christmastime, as seen by the presence of a church spire towering over the landscape. This enchanting engraving originally appeared in The Connoisseur Magazine in London back in 1908. It showcases James Pollard's influence on George Hunt's work and highlights their shared passion for old sporting prints. Through vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, Hunt masterfully brings this festive scene to life. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are transported into a world where tradition meets progress; where horse-drawn carriages coexist with railway tracks symbolizing movement towards modernity. This print serves as both a metaphorical representation of approaching Christmas and an invitation for us to appreciate our own holiday traditions within our ever-evolving world.
