EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration is a shadow portrait of the fictional character, Miss Blowzy, or Miss Puff Blowzy, as she is also known, from the series 'Shadow and Substance' by renowned English artist, Charles H. Bennett. The image, dated 1860, depicts Miss Blowzy standing in the sunlit room of The Ark in Trunkdale, holding a parasol in her hand. As she turns her back to the wall, her shadow casts an extraordinary image of an elephant. Charles H. Bennett was a master of the art of shadow portraiture, creating intricate and imaginative images of fictional characters and scenes by manipulating light and shadow. In this particular illustration, Bennett expertly uses the play of light and dark to bring Miss Blowzy's shadow to life, transforming the mundane act of casting a shadow into a whimsical and magical moment. Miss Blowzy, a character of uncertain origin, is often depicted as a plump, jolly woman with a fondness for food and drink. Her name, 'Blowzy,' suggests a certain level of boisterousness and merriment. In this illustration, she is shown in a light-hearted and carefree moment, adding to her endearing and beloved persona. The intricate details of the parasol, the folds of Miss Blowzy's dress, and the textured wall behind her all contribute to the depth and richness of this historical illustration. Bennett's skillful use of shadow and substance creates a captivating and timeless work of art that continues to delight and inspire viewers over a century after it was first created.
