EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage print titled "Lodgings to let, C. W. London, 1814" we are transported back in time to witness a charming encounter between a fashionably dressed man and an elegant young woman. The well-furnished sitting room provides the backdrop for their conversation. The man exudes confidence as he stands tall, wearing a stylish tophat and Hessian boots. With his large rough walking-stick in hand, he playfully addresses the young woman as "My sweet honey". His words suggest that he hopes she comes along with the lodgings on offer. However, her response is quick-witted and independent. She politely declines his proposition by stating that she is meant to be left alone. Her answer hints at her desire for personal freedom rather than being tied down by any commitments. This engraved image captures not only the fashion of its time but also reflects the illustrative technique prevalent during the Victorian era. It takes us on a journey into history, evoking feelings of nostalgia and appreciation for traditional art forms. As we gaze upon this artwork from 1814, we can't help but feel captivated by its romantic ambiance and old-fashioned charm. It serves as a reminder of how societal norms have evolved over time while still preserving elements of elegance and grace that continue to inspire us today.
