EDITORS COMMENTS
Picnic Near a Stream, ca. 1856: A Glimpse into Victorian Al Fresco Dining". This print, captured by the talented Horatio Ross in the mid-19th century, transports us to a serene countryside setting. Titled "Picnic Near a Stream" it offers an intimate snapshot of high-class social life during this era. Set against a backdrop of rugged rocks and lush greenery, we witness an elegant group enjoying their leisurely picnic. Men and women dressed in fine attire gather around a beautifully laid-out spread of food and wine. The scene exudes refinement as they engage in lively conversation while savoring delectable treats. Ross's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of each individual - from the distinguished men with their top hats and well-groomed beards to the graceful ladies adorned in intricate Victorian fashion. This gathering near the stream showcases not only camaraderie but also highlights the natural beauty that Scotland has to offer. The salted paper print technique employed by Ross adds depth and texture to this remarkable piece of heritage art, now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. It serves as a testament to Ross's mastery as both photographer and artist. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are transported back in time; invited to join these upper-class individuals on their idyllic al fresco outing – where nature intertwines with human connection for an unforgettable experience amidst picturesque surroundings.
