EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Orange Women, 1872" transports us back to the bustling streets of Victorian London. Created by the talented Gustave Doré for his book "London: A Pilgrimage" this image captures a slice of everyday life in 19th century Britain. In the midst of a busy cityscape, we see an English street vendor elegantly dressed in traditional clothing, holding a tray filled with vibrant oranges. Her shawl drapes gracefully over her shoulders as she patiently waits for potential customers to approach. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable, showcasing Doré's mastery in capturing both the physical appearance and social class of his subjects. The scene exudes a sense of authenticity and historical significance, transporting us to a time when street sellers played an integral role in urban commerce. Through this image, we gain insight into not only the occupation but also the fashion and culture prevalent during that era. Doré's collaboration with Blanchard Jerrold brings forth an exquisite blend of literature and visual artistry. This particular print serves as a testament to their shared passion for documenting London's rich history through their respective mediums. As we admire this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, let it serve as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing us glimpses into different epochs while igniting our curiosity about those who came before us.
