Anglo-Saxon March
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and symbolically rich musical cover design by Max Werner, created in 1898. The image features a Dreadnought battleship sailing on a tranquil sea, surrounded by smaller ships and transport vessels. At the center of the composition, an allegorical female figure stands, her right hand holding aloft an American flag with stars and stripes, while her left foot rests on the proud figure of the British Lion. The lion, with a helmet on its head and a laurel wreath around its neck, symbolizes the British Empire's strength and glory. The title of the work, "Anglo-Saxon March," is inscribed at the top of the cover, with the subtitle "For Septet or Orchestra" below. The musical score, with its intricate lines and dynamic swells, is depicted as if being printed from a manuscript or published document. The overall mood of the cover is one of peace and unity, with the allegorical figures representing the harmonious coexistence of the Anglo-Saxon and American cultures. The cover design is reminiscent of the Marlborough Street in Great London, where many music publishers were located during the late 19th century. The image exudes a sense of patriotism and pride, with the American and British flags waving proudly in the breeze. The use of the Dreadnought battleship, a symbol of military power and technological innovation, adds an element of grandeur and importance to the design. Overall, Max Werner's "Anglo-Saxon March" cover is a stunning example of the artistic and symbolic power of music and its ability to bring people together.
