EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable piece of history - a Souvenir Handkerchief Commemorating the visit of His Royal Highness Prince of Wales to America in 1860. The future King Edward VII embarked on an unprecedented tour of North America, marking the first time a Prince of Wales had undertaken such a journey. The image showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this commemorative handkerchief. Designed by Henry Bowen, it features a portrait of Prince Albert Edward, elegantly dressed in his military uniform, standing tall and proud. Printed using copperplate printing techniques, this cotton plain weave fabric serves as both a memento and an artistic masterpiece from the Victorian era. The intricate lettering adds depth to the overall design, emphasizing its significance as a historical artifact. As we gaze upon this print at the Art Institute Chicago, we are transported back to 19th century Britain. It reminds us of the cultural exchange between nations during that time and highlights how important events were celebrated through art. Henry Bowen's creation stands as a testament to his talent as well as his admiration for royalty. This souvenir handkerchief not only preserves history but also represents an era when printed objects held great value in commemorating significant moments in society.
