Marriage De Raison - A Humorous Glimpse into Loveless Bliss
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this delightful colour lithograph, titled "Marriage De Raison" we are transported to a bedroom scene that captures the essence of an unconventional union. Created by an English School artist in the early 20th century, this postcard print offers a humorous take on marital life. The image portrays two pigs comfortably nestled in their bed, turning their backs to each other. The snoring emanating from both sides adds a touch of amusement and highlights the indifference within their relationship. With its clever play on words, "Marriage De Raison" suggests a lack of rationality or emotional connection between these porcine partners. Despite the loveless atmosphere depicted here, there is an undeniable contentment in their shared space. The choice of pigs as characters adds another layer of irony since they are often associated with gluttony and laziness – qualities that can be attributed to some marriages deemed practical rather than passionate. This whimsical artwork invites us to reflect on our own relationships and reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously. It serves as a gentle reminder that even amidst snoring and indifference, there can still be moments of humor and joy if we embrace them with light-heartedness. With its amusing depiction of marital dynamics through clever visual storytelling, this postcard print captures the universal quirks found within partnerships while offering a lighthearted perspective on love's complexities.
