EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Single" by Thomas Fairland is a true gem from the 19th century. Published in 1840 by Ackermann and Co. , this colour litho print showcases the exceptional talent of both the artist and publisher. The image transports us to a Victorian interior, where we find ourselves in the company of a distinguished bachelor. The room exudes an air of relaxation and leisure, with its cozy fireplace crackling warmly in the background. The man sits comfortably on an elegant chair, engrossed in his own thoughts as he indulges in a pipe. Fairland's attention to detail is remarkable; every line and shadow expertly captured to bring life to this scene. The play of light on the man's face highlights his features, revealing a sense of contentment mixed with contemplation. This print offers us a glimpse into domestic life during this era, showcasing not only the solitude that bachelors often sought but also their appreciation for refined interiors and personal moments of reflection. Displayed at The Geffrye Museum of the Home in London, UK, it serves as a testament to our fascination with history and how art can transport us through time. This piece truly captures the essence of Victorian masculinity while inviting viewers to ponder upon themes such as solitude, leisure, and self-reflection.
