Comforting (engraving)
EDITORS COMMENTS
by George du Maurier captures a humorous scene from 19th century British society. In this satirical drawing, du Maurier pokes fun at the changing physique and fashion trends of middle-aged men and women. The engraving depicts a conversation between two individuals, an overweight man and a slim woman. The contrast in their physical appearances highlights the societal expectations placed on different genders when it comes to body image. The man's ample build is exaggerated for comedic effect, while the woman maintains a more athletic figure. Dressed in Victorian-era costumes, they engage in banter that reflects the cultural norms and attitudes towards weight and aging during that time period. Du Maurier's keen eye for detail is evident as he incorporates elements such as tennis attire to symbolize athleticism and German fashion to add an international touch. Through his scathing satire, du Maurier not only mocks societal ideals but also comments on the influence of European culture on British society. This engraving serves as both entertainment and social commentary, offering viewers a glimpse into the complexities of 19th century Britain. This digitally cleaned image from "Comforting" provides us with a fascinating window into history, reminding us that humor has always been used as a tool to navigate societal changes and challenge conventional norms.
