EDITORS COMMENTS
In this whimsical engraving by William Douglas Almond, we are transported back to the 19th century, where the experiences of an enumerator taking the census come to life. The scene is filled with humor and domestic charm as a man and a lady sit together at a table, diligently filling out their census forms. The room is bathed in warm light from the flickering candles, creating an intimate atmosphere. The registrar general's representative, known as the enumerator, appears determined to complete his task despite facing some resistance. With pipe in hand and a mischievous grin on his face, he defies any obstacles that may come his way. However, it seems that not everyone is willing to cooperate. A sealed envelope lies untouched on the table - perhaps belonging to someone who refuses to participate or simply wants to keep their information private. This delightful print captures both the challenges and amusing moments encountered during this important process of gathering data for official records. It serves as a reminder of how much society has evolved since then while also highlighting timeless aspects of human nature. Bridgeman Images brings us yet another treasure from their collection – showcasing historical scenes like this one that continue to captivate our imagination and offer glimpses into our past without mentioning commercial use.
