Oh the Mistletoe Bough (Bow) - Old Song New Song
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the 19th century. This satirical drawing, created by an English School artist, offers a humorous take on British royalty and Victorian society. In this intricate scene, we find ourselves submerged in the depths of the sea bed where a shipwreck lies. Mermaids gracefully swim among various fish and wildlife, adding an enchanting touch to the composition. The sunken ship serves as a stage for this scathing satire, depicting King Edward VII alongside other members of British monarchy. The artist's wit shines through as he pokes fun at both royal figures and societal norms of his time. With clever caricatures and playful details, he invites viewers to reflect on power dynamics and social hierarchies. As we examine this print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded of its origin in "Edward the Seventh - A Play" published in London in 1876. It captures not only historical context but also showcases how art can be used as a tool for commentary and entertainment. This artwork is truly a testament to British culture during that era – blending elements of satire with underwater beauty. It invites us to dive into history while appreciating the creativity behind it all.
