EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Invitation to a Benefit Dinner from Hubert von Herkomer to Thomas Agnew, 1877-78" transports us back to the vibrant artistic scene of 19th century Britain. Created by the renowned artist Hubert von Herkomer, this black and white masterpiece showcases his exceptional talent in both lithography and pen and ink lettering. The image depicts an allegorical figure representing charity, surrounded by a group of men and women. The composition exudes a somber atmosphere with its maudlin undertones, as evidenced by the presence of an hourglass symbolizing the passage of time and a deathbed scene in the background. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, from the intricate handwriting on the invitation letter to the carefully rendered palette held by one of the figures. This artwork holds historical significance as it was created for a benefit dinner organized by Hubert von Herkomer himself in support of the Artists' General Benevolent Institution. The institution aimed to provide assistance and support for struggling artists during challenging times. Through this print, Herkomer not only showcased his artistic prowess but also demonstrated his commitment to philanthropy within the art community. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this lithograph serves as a testament to Herkomer's enduring legacy as both an accomplished artist and compassionate advocate for fellow creatives. It stands as a reminder that art has always had profound connections with charity, empathy
