EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Methods of holding the pen (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the art of writing during that era. Created by an unknown American artist, this illustration was featured in The National Encyclopaedia of Business and Social Forms by James D McCabe around 1881. The image showcases various techniques employed for holding a pen, highlighting the importance placed on proper handwriting etiquette during this time. It serves as a reminder of how society valued good manners and refined skills in communication. With intricate details and delicate lines, the engraver skillfully captures different hand positions while writing. This artwork not only celebrates the artistry involved in writing but also sheds light on office supplies prevalent at that time. Pens were considered essential tools found in every stationery shop or office equipment store. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it transports us to an era where handwritten words held immense power and significance. It is a testament to human creativity and adaptability throughout history, reminding us that even something as simple as holding a pen can be transformed into an artistic expression.
