EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "A Mansion of the Past" takes us back to the 19th century, a time when grandeur and opulence were at their peak. The print showcases a magnificent manor house, exuding elegance and charm in every detail. The artist behind this masterpiece is Richard Leitch, a renowned engraver from the 19th century. With his skilled hand, Leitch brings to life this stately home with intricate precision and attention to detail. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are transported into an era where mansions like these represented wealth and social status. The sprawling grounds surrounding the mansion hint at its vastness and importance within society. This illustration was originally created for The Quiver magazine in 1876, showcasing Leitch's talent as an illustrator. It captures the essence of a bygone era when such dwellings were not only places of residence but also symbols of power and influence. Now preserved in a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate the beauty of historical architecture from centuries past. It serves as a reminder that even though times change, there will always be something timeless about these majestic mansions that continue to captivate our imagination.
