1901 Hugh Thomson Lithograph for 'Quality Street, An Edwardian Comedy'

Description

Wonderful, fun, feminine Edwardian fashions!

From Hugh Thomson, here is a gorgeous tipped-in Edwardian lithograph, gleaned from a discarded 1st edition of James M. Barrie's "Quality Street ~ A Comedy in Four Acts".

Barrie penned "Quality Street" a decade before 'Peter Pan' and 'Quality Street's story of two sisters opening a school for genteel children is a tale of Edwardian style and social fashion and the illustrations by Irish artist Hugh Thomson are absolutely perfect, reflecting this elegance.

The lithograph is tipped onto card and both are blank on their reverse. Both lithograph and card are protected by an engraved paper cover with the captioning ~

"Patty ushers in the sisters Willoughby and Miss Henrietta. Miss Henrietta is wearing the new veil, which opens or closes like curtains when she pulls a string." Page 93

The tipped-in lithograph measures measures 6.5" x 4.25" (17x11 cm) and the card measures 4.75" x 6.875" (12x18 cm) and neither shows tanning. The papers are clean and without tears, folds, marks, or creases.

Absolutely wonderful to frame ~ perfect and for your card and scrap-book page making, collage, decoupage, mixed media.
