EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century, titled "Due at Michaelmas" captures a delightful scene filled with humor and charm. The illustration, originally featured in The Comic Annual by Thomas Hood in 1833, showcases the talent of an English School artist. In this whimsical image, we are transported to a serene farm setting near a picturesque lake. A flock of ducks and geese gracefully glide across the water while others waddle along the grassy banks. Among them are adorable ducklings following closely behind their parents. The clever play on words becomes evident as we notice one particular goose holding up a sign that reads "Due at Michaelmas". It seems these feathered creatures have some sort of payment or deadline to meet, adding an element of intrigue to this lighthearted scene. The intricate details captured by the skilled engraver bring life to each animal depicted in this artwork. From the feathers on their wings to the ripples in the water beneath them, every aspect is meticulously rendered. This enchanting print serves as both a testament to artistic talent and a reminder that even amidst our daily responsibilities, there is always room for laughter and amusement.
