Commentaires : | This work by Anthony Flower is part of a handmade book of paintings. Flower is well known for using images from the illustrated periodicals of the mid 19th century. This painting was inspired by The Baddington Peerage: who Won, and who Wore it: A Story of the Best and the Worst Society, a novel written by George Augustus Sala, published in 1856. It was serialized in 1857 in the Illustrated Times with various line drawings. Flower's painting is from Manuelita Watched by the Professor, Illustrated Times, May 4, 1857, page 301. Manuelita is one of the characters in the book. The image appeared in Chapter 16, 9 May 1857, page 301 of the Illustrated Times. The image in the paper has a few more details, but Flower has done an admirable job in capturing the main image of Manuelita - in fact enhancing the subject. |
