The Tambourine by François De Coninck, engraved by H. Bourne,1886 Steel Engraving

Beschreibung

The print titled "The Tambourine" is a steel engraving based on an original work by François De Coninck, engraved by H. Bourne. The artwork depicts a young girl holding a tambourine, a traditional percussion instrument, in a pose that suggests she is either about to play it or has just finished. The girl is dressed in what appears to be period or traditional attire, including a headscarf, a beaded necklace, and a flowing garment with puffed sleeves, adding a sense of cultural or historical context to the scene. Her expression is serene and focused, with her hands gently resting on the tambourine, which is prominently displayed in the foreground. The background is dark and unadorned, which serves to highlight the subject and draw the viewer's attention directly to her and the instrument. François De Coninck, though not extensively documented, was likely an artist known for capturing everyday scenes with a touch of realism and charm. H. Bourne, the engraver, has skillfully translated the original artwork into a detailed engraving, preserving the delicate features and the emotional nuance of the scene.
