The Trained Husband - A Comic Take on Marital Bliss
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this delightful color lithograph, we are transported back to the early 20th century, where a humorous postcard captures the essence of married life. Titled "The Trained Husband" it playfully depicts a scene that many couples can relate to. Amidst a bustling street filled with shoppers and their luggage, we see an assertive wife in her fashionable attire. With a mischievous smile on her face, she confidently carries not only her own bags but also those belonging to her husband. The image humorously portrays the dynamics of marriage as the woman takes charge and trains her husband to carry out tasks traditionally assigned to women. The comical nature of this artwork is enhanced by various elements such as oversized suitcases and parasols, emphasizing the exaggerated roles played by each character. The top-hatted husband appears both bewildered and obedient under his wife's watchful eye. This vintage postcard serves as a lighthearted reminder that relationships often involve playful power struggles and compromises. It invites us to reflect on how societal norms have evolved over time while reminding us that laughter is essential in navigating these complexities. "The Trained Husband" continues to entertain audiences today with its timeless portrayal of marital banter. As we gaze upon this whimsical print from our private collection, let us appreciate the enduring charm of comic artistry captured within its frames.
