EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a humorous moment of camaraderie and playfulness among a group of friends. Titled "We play the game of 'Cutlets'" the image depicts several individuals sitting on each other's laps, engrossed in a lively parlor game. The engraving, created by Weedon Grossmith, is an illustration for the famous novel "The Diary of a Nobody" written by George and Weedon Grossmith. Set in London during the late 19th century, the scene showcases the lower middle-class protagonist Mr. Charles Pooter and his companions engaging in this amusing pastime. Amidst their laughter and enjoyment, Gowing poses an unexpected question to one of his friends: "Are you a believer in the Great Mogul?". This playful remark adds an element of wit to their gathering. The reference to the Great Mogul alludes to India's rich history and culture under Mughal rule. It highlights how even amidst their ordinary lives, these individuals find joy in exploring different topics through games like Cutlets. This print not only captures moments of levity but also offers insight into social dynamics within Victorian society. Through its humor and charm, it invites viewers to reflect on friendship, leisure activities, and shared experiences that transcend time periods.
