EDITORS COMMENTS
In this amusing engraving titled "There was a young Woman of thirty" we are transported back to the Victorian era, where humor and satire were often intertwined. The English School artist brilliantly captures the essence of a witty and mischievous woman in her thirties. With a twinkle in her eye and an inclination for mischief, this young lady seems to be up to no good. Her shirty expression suggests that she is not one to conform easily to societal norms. Perhaps she is poking fun at the rigid expectations placed upon women during that time. The satirical undertones are evident as we delve into the details of this print. It is suggested that she may have taken a dip or trip, resulting in her disheveled appearance - a playful jab at how even small mishaps could cause scandal among Victorians. What adds further amusement is the mention of her dirty husband, hinting at their unconventional relationship dynamics. This clever play on words showcases both wit and cheekiness. Overall, this humorous engraving serves as a delightful reminder that even during more conservative times, there were individuals who dared to challenge societal norms with their wit and charm.
