1888 Bench Couple Courtship Dumaurier Flirting George Louis Lover Lust Muff Newspaper Park Reading Victorian Busson Palmella
EDITORS COMMENTS
The "Fond and Foolish" cartoon print by George Louis Palmella Busson Du Maurier, dating back to 1888, captures a delightful scene from late Victorian England. In this charming artwork, we witness a couple engaged in courtship amidst the picturesque setting of a park bench. The man, engrossed in reading his newspaper, seems oblivious to the world around him as he indulges in his daily routine. Meanwhile, the woman sits beside him with an expression that reveals her fondness for her lover's company. This whimsical illustration beautifully portrays the innocent flirtation between two individuals during an era known for its strict social norms and etiquette. The subtle hints of lust and desire are delicately conveyed through their body language and stolen glances. Du Maurier's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this piece; from the intricate Victorian clothing worn by both characters to the muff held tightly by the woman as she tries to keep warm on this chilly day. Through his skillful artistry, Du Maurier transports us back in time and allows us a glimpse into everyday life during this period. As we admire this print from Granger Art on Demand, we can't help but be reminded of how love has always found its way into our hearts throughout history – even amidst societal expectations and constraints.
