EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite tempera panel, titled 'The Coquette,' once graced the walls of Crawfords Tea Room in Edinburgh, Scotland, around 1920. The panel's creator remains anonymous, but its presence in the tea room adds an air of elegance and sophistication. The Coquette depicts a young woman, dressed in the height of early 20th-century fashion, with a demure expression and a delicate pose. She holds a fan in one hand and a rose in the other, her dark hair cascading down her shoulders in soft waves. The rich colors and intricate details of the painting are beautifully preserved, showcasing the skill and artistry of the unknown artist. The tea room itself was a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, offering a respite from the bustling streets of Edinburgh. Crawfords Tea Room was known for its warm atmosphere, delicious pastries, and fine teas. The installation of The Coquette panel added to the tea room's allure, creating a charming and inviting space where patrons could enjoy a moment of relaxation and refinement. Tempera painting was a popular art form during the medieval and Renaissance periods, but by the early 1900s, it had fallen out of favor with the rise of oil painting. However, this panel demonstrates that tempera continued to be used in some circles, particularly for decorative arts and religious icons. The survival of The Coquette panel in Crawfords Tea Room is a testament to the enduring appeal of this traditional art form and the importance of preserving our cultural heritage.
