EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artistry of penmanship in the 19th century. Titled "Standard Letters; Ladies Hand; Whole Arm Capitals" this engraving by American School is a testament to the meticulous attention given to lettering during this era. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was originally featured in "The Universal Self-Instructor and Manual of General Reference" published in Sydney around 1885. Intricate and elegant, these standard letters and ladies' hand exemplify the refined style prevalent during the Victorian period. Each stroke is carefully crafted with precision, showcasing the skillful mastery of calligraphy. The whole arm capitals add an extra touch of grandeur to this exquisite piece. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in an age where handwritten communication held great importance. This image serves as a reminder of how penmanship was once considered an essential aspect of general knowledge and reference. Let us appreciate not only the beauty captured within this photograph but also its significance as a symbol of artistic expression from centuries past. It reminds us that even in our modern world dominated by digital communication, there is still value in preserving traditional forms of craftsmanship such as lettering and penmanship.
