Victorian Art Collage

The Metropolitan Museum of Art here in NYC had a special exhibit on Victorian collage art. Images and descriptions from the exhibition can be seen can be viewed here.

Quote:
Sixty years before the embrace of collage techniques by avant-garde artists of the early twentieth century, aristocratic Victorian women were already experimenting with photocollage. The compositions they made with photographs and watercolors are whimsical and fantastical, combining human heads and animal bodies, placing people into imaginary landscapes, and morphing faces into common household objects.


I really liked the one entitled "Mixed Pickles". LOL Hm...I think I may have found a new hobby.
