EDITORS COMMENTS
A Merry Tale," printed between 1889 and 1891, is an exquisite photogravure by the renowned Victorian photographer Henry Peach Robinson. This image transports us back to the 1880s and 1890s, a time of simplicity and joy, as depicted by the young women in this group portrait. The scene unfolds in a natural setting, with the women gathered outside, surrounded by lush greenery and the beauty of nature. They are dressed in fashionable clothing of the era, with crisp white blouses and colorful aprons. The women are engaged in a merry tale, their faces reflecting the enjoyment of the moment. Some are listening intently, while others speak and laugh, their connection to each other palpable. The use of pictorialism in this photograph is evident, with the focus on the story being told and the emotional connection between the subjects. The black and white medium adds to the timeless quality of the image, allowing us to appreciate the details of their clothing and the natural setting. This photograph is a testament to the social class of the time, with the women appearing to be of the working class, yet their clothing suggests a sense of pride and enjoyment in their simple pleasures. The image is a reminder of the importance of connection and the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments. This beautiful photograph is a treasure from the past, now preserved in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) collection, allowing us to appreciate the heritage art of the 19th century and the story it tells of a merry tale shared among young women.
