EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from January 1947, we catch a glimpse of the renowned actor and presenter, Wilfred Pickles, finding himself under the thumb. As he stands amidst a domestic setting, surrounded by household chores and cleaning supplies, one cannot help but sense an air of both entertainment and domination in the scene. The image beautifully captures the essence of domestic life during the 1940s. A housewife takes charge with a rolling pin in hand while engaged in her daily housework routine. Meanwhile, Pickles appears to be caught off guard as he finds himself at the mercy of her authority. The juxtaposition between traditional gender roles is palpable here; it serves as a reminder of societal norms prevalent during that era. As an influential figure in entertainment and television at that time, Pickles' presence adds another layer to this intriguing snapshot. His expression suggests surprise or perhaps even amusement at being subjected to such dominance within this seemingly mundane context. This print not only offers us a glimpse into everyday life back then but also prompts contemplation about power dynamics within relationships and society as a whole. It encapsulates an era when women were expected to take charge on the home front while men played supporting roles. Memory Lane Prints has once again transported us back in time through their carefully curated collection – reminding us how much our world has evolved since those days without commercial intentions.
