EDITORS COMMENTS
Anticipation! (litho) captures a charming moment in the bustling streets of 19th century England. This delightful lithograph, created by Pedro de Vega and published in the Christmas Number of the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News on December 2,1893, depicts two young delivery boys eagerly preparing for their day's work. In this scene, one boy can be seen lacing up his roller skates beneath a sign that reads 'No Traffic on Wheels, ' while his companion stands by attentively. Between them stands a small dog, its eyes fixed longingly on the basket of meat resting on the ground nearby. The artist skillfully portrays the sense of anticipation shared by these young boys as they embark on their deliveries. Their enthusiasm is palpable as they prepare to navigate through the busy streets with their precious cargo. This print not only offers us a glimpse into daily life during this era but also highlights themes such as childhood innocence and determination. The inclusion of roller skates adds an element of excitement and adventure to an otherwise ordinary task. Bridgeman Images has preserved this beautiful engraving from Look and Learn / Bernard Platman Antiquarian Collection, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance today. It serves as a reminder that even in simpler times, moments filled with anticipation were cherished.
