More than meets the Eye - A Humorous Engraving from the 19th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "More than meets the Eye" takes us back to the whimsical world of 19th-century humor. Created by an anonymous English School artist, this illustration showcases their talent for combining wit and artistry. The image is a delightful visual representation of a popular saying - that there's more to something or someone than what initially meets the eye. The central focus is on a pair of exaggerated eyeballs with mischievous expressions, cleverly highlighting how appearances can be deceiving. The intricate details in each eyelid and iris showcase the skillful hand of the engraver. Set against a backdrop reminiscent of early 19th-century aesthetics, this comic masterpiece was originally featured in Thomas Hood's 'The Comic Annual' published in 1839. It perfectly captures the spirit of satire prevalent during that era. As we delve into this intriguing artwork, it becomes evident that it not only tickles our funny bone but also invites us to reflect upon deeper truths hidden beneath surface-level observations. With its timeless appeal and expert craftsmanship, this engraving continues to captivate viewers even today. Now preserved within a private collection, this print serves as a reminder of how art has always been intertwined with humor throughout history. Its enduring charm lies in its ability to transcend time and bring joy through laughter – proving once again that there truly is more than meets the eye.
