EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a significant moment in history - 1867, when the Duchess of Sutherland laid the foundation stone of the Alexandra Orphanage at Hornsey Rise. The image, captured through an illustrative technique known as engraving, showcases the grandeur and elegance of Victorian arts and culture. The Duchess, adorned in her regal attire, stands proudly amidst a crowd gathered for this momentous occasion. Her presence exudes grace and compassion as she lays the foundation stone with great care and reverence. The engraved details beautifully capture every intricate aspect of this historical event. The Alexandra Orphanage itself is not depicted in this particular image; instead, it focuses solely on capturing the significance of this act by one noble woman. This retro-styled vintage print evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era while also serving as a reminder of philanthropic efforts that have shaped our society. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Arkheia's collection, we are transported to another time - witnessing firsthand an important chapter in history. It serves as both a testament to human kindness and resilience while highlighting the artistic mastery behind engravement techniques used during that period.
