EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print titled "Slimy-looking Victorian man ogling a selection of ladies" we are transported back to a social gathering in the 19th century. The scene captures the essence of a bygone era, where societal norms and expectations were vastly different from today. The slimy-looking Victorian man stands at the center of attention, his eyes fixed on a group of elegantly dressed ladies who await their turn to be asked for a dance. His demeanor suggests an air of arrogance and entitlement, as he surveys his potential dance partners with calculated interest. Meanwhile, amidst the hopeful anticipation, we notice a proud Mamma discreetly observing from afar. Her gaze is not directed towards her daughter's happiness or compatibility but rather towards something more pragmatic - she is calculating the size of this gentleman's bank balance. It serves as a stark reminder that even in matters of love and courtship during this time period, financial considerations often played an influential role. This image is taken from Mrs Perkinsas Balla by M. A. Titmarsh (William Makepeace Thackeray), published in London in 1847. Through its vivid portrayal and attention to detail, it offers us a glimpse into the complexities and nuances that defined relationships within high society during this era. With its historical significance and artistic charm, "Slimy-looking Victorian man ogling a selection of ladies" invites us to reflect upon our own notions of romance and how they have evolved over time.
