EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the architectural grandeur of 19th century Britain. Created by James Tissot, a renowned French artist, this etching and drypoint on laid paper beautifully captures the essence of Victorian artistry. In this stunning artwork, we are drawn into the bustling scene outside the National Gallery in London. A group of women elegantly ascend the steps leading up to the gallery's portico, their presence adding a touch of grace and femininity to this otherwise monumental setting. The first state of two reveals intricate details meticulously crafted by Tissot's skilled hand. The composition exudes a sense of timelessness as it showcases both historical significance and artistic mastery. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly displays this piece as part of its heritage collection, highlighting its importance in preserving cultural treasures from around the world. As we gaze upon "The Portico" we can almost feel ourselves stepping into another era - one where art was celebrated and revered. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our modern lives, there is still beauty to be found in appreciating history and embracing timeless works like those created by James Tissot.
