Waving goodbye, 1872
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment of farewell in the bustling streets of London during the late nineteenth century. The engraving, originally published in The Quiver in 1872, showcases a scene of good manners and etiquette as a gentleman bids adieu to his companion with a polite wave.
The intricate details of the engraving transport viewers back to a time when waving goodbye was not just a simple gesture, but an art form that reflected one's politeness and respect for others. The figures depicted exude elegance and sophistication, embodying the refined manners of Victorian society.
As we gaze upon this historical print, we are reminded of the importance placed on proper social conduct in bygone eras. The act of saying farewell was not taken lightly; it was an opportunity to show grace and consideration towards others.
Through this image, we are invited to reflect on our own interactions and gestures of farewell in today's fast-paced world. Perhaps there is something to be learned from the past about taking the time to bid adieu with sincerity and courtesy.
"Waving goodbye, 1872" serves as a timeless reminder that even simple acts of kindness can leave lasting impressions on those around us.
