Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
Ames & Rollinson
Ames & Rollinson, though not household names, represent a fascinating intersection of art and commerce in late 19th and early 20th century America. Founded by Daniel T. Ames and Charles Rollinson, the company excelled in ornamental penmanship and engrossing, producing exquisitely lettered resolutions, certificates, and memorials. Their work wasn't merely functional; it elevated calligraphy to an art form, incorporating elaborate flourishes, detailed illustrations, and often, gold leaf. Ames, in particular, was a celebrated penman, even publishing a popular manual on the subject. While much of their output served practical purposes, Ames & Rollinson's artistry transcended mere utility. Their pieces, often commissioned by businesses, organisations, or wealthy individuals, reflect the aesthetic sensibilities of the Gilded Age. The elaborate detail and ornate style speak to a desire for grandeur and permanence. Ames & Rollinson's work provides a window into a world where handwriting was not just a means of communication but a demonstration of skill, artistry, and status. Today, Ames & Rollinson's creations are highly sought after by collectors. They represent a unique blend of calligraphy, illustration, and decorative art. Owning a print of their work is not just acquiring a beautiful image; it's owning a piece of American history, a testament to a time when craftsmanship and artistry were deeply intertwined.
