EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Waiting at the Gate" artist Marcus Stone takes us back to a bygone era, immersing us in a scene filled with anticipation and elegance. The print showcases a group of women dressed in exquisite fashions, gathered near an ornate gate within a lush garden setting. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of the time, allowing us to glimpse into the sartorial choices that defined this period. As we observe these women waiting at the gate, one can't help but wonder about their stories and what they are eagerly anticipating beyond those iron bars. Are they awaiting loved ones' return? Or perhaps embarking on an exciting journey? The image leaves room for our imagination to wander through countless possibilities. Stone's attention to detail is evident as he expertly captures not only the intricate designs of their garments but also their graceful postures and expressions. Each figure exudes poise and sophistication, adding depth to this enchanting composition. This particular print was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic magazine in June 1877. It serves as a testament to Stone's talent and his ability to transport viewers into another time and place through his artistry. "Waiting at the Gate" is truly a timeless piece that invites us to reflect upon our own moments of anticipation while appreciating both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance.
