EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Woman in the Wind with March Hare" is a remarkable piece of art created by Edward Penfield in 1895. The poster was specifically designed as an advertisement for Harper's New Monthly Magazine for the month of March that year. The artwork showcases Penfield's exceptional talent and his ability to capture movement and emotion through color and form. In this composition, a woman stands gracefully amidst a gusty wind, her hair billowing around her face while she holds onto a whimsical March hare. The contrasting colors used by Penfield bring life to the scene, with vibrant shades of reds and blues creating a sense of dynamism. This lithograph serves as both decoration and historical artifact, reflecting the artistic style prevalent during the late 19th century. It embodies the essence of decorative advertising from that era, where aesthetics played an essential role in capturing viewers' attention. Preserved within archives, this print offers us a glimpse into Welsh artist Edward Penfield's mastery and his contribution to graphic design history. Its archival significance lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its representation of advertising trends at that time. As we admire this stunning piece today, let us appreciate how it seamlessly blends artistry with commercial purpose without compromising on beauty or creativity—a testament to Edward Penfield's enduring legacy as an influential artist of his time.
