The Approach to Christmas, 1849
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by James Pollard that transports us back in time to a bustling Victorian street scene. In this enchanting winter landscape, we are greeted with a picturesque view of a snow-covered street adorned with horse-drawn carts and shops brimming with provisions. At the center of the composition stands a fruit shop, overflowing with an abundance of colorful fruits and vegetables. The fruiterer attends to his customers, carefully selecting their desired items amidst the snowy backdrop. The scene exudes warmth and festivity as shoppers eagerly gather supplies for the approaching Christmas celebrations. Pollard's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the delicate flakes of falling snow to the intricate architecture of surrounding buildings. The artist captures not only the beauty but also the chaos that accompanies such wintry scenes - hinted at by references to accidents within his title. This remarkable print invites us into a world long gone but forever preserved on canvas. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation, offering glimpses into daily life during this era. "The Approach to Christmas, 1849" is truly a treasure that allows us to immerse ourselves in Victorian traditions while marveling at Pollard's skillful portrayal of light, atmosphere, and human activity within this charming winter setting.
