EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pictures of the Year- IX, E. Onslow Ford, 'Portrait of my Mother', 1888" by Edward Onslow Ford takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century art. The image showcases a beautifully carved head sculpture of a woman, meticulously crafted by the talented British artist himself. The black background serves as a striking contrast against the intricate details of this hand-carved masterpiece. With every delicate curve and line expertly captured in this studio shot, it is evident that Ford poured his heart and soul into creating this stunning portrait. The subject of this artwork is none other than Martha Lydia Gardner, Ford's own mother. Through her visage, we catch a glimpse into their intimate family connection and witness the profound influence she had on her son's artistic journey. As we delve deeper into Victorian society through this illustration from The Graphic newspaper, we can appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also how art served as an important medium for self-expression during that era. This image encapsulates both the beauty and complexity inherent in capturing human emotion through sculpture. Preserved within these lines lies not just an exquisite piece of art but also a testament to familial love and devotion. It reminds us that behind every great artist stands someone who inspired them to create such enduring masterpieces.
