EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back in time to a 19th-century English church where a man is singing from a hymn book with utmost passion. The scene exudes an air of drama as the man's mouth hangs open, pouring out his soulful voice into the sacred space. This image comes from "Old Christmas: From The Sketch Book of Washington Irving" beautifully illustrated by Randolph Caldecott and published in 1882. Surrounded by women, mature men, and fellow congregants seated on wooden pews, the man stands out with his fervent expression and theatrical style. His performance becomes a focal point amidst the monochromatic ambiance of the church interior. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes nostalgia for traditional English Christmas customs. It serves as a visual reminder of Irving's recollections, chronicling cherished memories that have become emblematic of festive traditions during that era. Whitemay's skillful capture allows us to witness this historical scene firsthand, immersing ourselves in its rich atmosphere. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the melodic strains of hymns filling the air while feeling the collective devotion within those hallowed walls.
