EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Wish" we are transported to a serene garden scene straight out of an Elizabethan era. The illustration, created by Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale and published in 1910, beautifully captures the essence of peace and tranquility. A man dressed in traditional Elizabethan costume stands amidst the lush greenery, engrossed in reading a book of old English songs and ballads. His calm demeanor suggests that he has found solace within the verses, as if they transport him to another world. Beside him sits a contented cat, its presence adding to the overall sense of serenity. As it gazes up at its human companion with affectionate eyes, one can't help but feel a deep connection between them - perhaps even suggesting that poetry has the power to bridge gaps between species. "The Wish" is based on Abraham Cowley's poem of the same name, which explores themes of pride and ambition. However, this particular illustration focuses more on finding inner peace through literature and nature. It serves as a reminder that sometimes our greatest desires can be fulfilled by simply immersing ourselves in words that touch our souls. Fortescue-Brickdale's use of color lithography adds vibrancy to this enchanting scene. The warm hues evoke feelings of comfort and harmony while capturing the beauty inherent in both nature and art. This print from Fine Art Finder invites us into a world where time seems to stand still - where gardens become sanctuaries
