Afternoon Tea, 1886
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a picturesque scene from the late 19th century. In this charming chromolithograph by Catherine Greenaway, three young ladies dressed in elegant white gowns and adorned with straw bonnets gather for tea on a sunny summer afternoon. The setting is an idyllic walled garden with a vibrant herbaceous border that adds splashes of color to the scene. Seated around a beautifully set table, the ladies enjoy their tea while surrounded by nature's beauty. The Victorian-style furniture exudes sophistication and complements the overall aesthetic of the garden. A delicate teapot pours steaming tea into dainty cups as conversation flows freely among these refined women. The attention to detail in both fashion and surroundings transports us back to a time when leisurely gatherings like this were cherished moments. The floral arrangements and meticulously manicured lawn further enhance the serene atmosphere. This print not only showcases Greenaway's artistic talent but also provides insight into 19th-century social customs and fashion trends. It encapsulates an era where elegance, refinement, and appreciation for nature were highly valued. Whether displayed in a home or gallery, "Afternoon Tea, 1886" invites viewers to step into another world – one filled with timeless charm and grace. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when taking pleasure in good company, delicious food, beautiful gardens, and delightful conversations was at the heart of leisurely afternoons spent together.
