Last in bed puts out the light!
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and humorous colour lithograph by Albert Ludovici Jr. This postcard, dating back to the early 20th century, showcases Ludovici's satirical drawing skills and his ability to capture amusing moments in everyday life. The scene depicts a bedroom setting with a married couple engaged in a comical dispute. The husband, wearing a nightcap and nightshirt, sits on the edge of their large bed while holding a candle. His wife stands defiantly at the foot of the bed, dressed in her nightdress. The caption suggests that whoever is last to join them in bed will be responsible for extinguishing the light. Ludovici's caricature style adds an extra layer of humor to this scene as he exaggerates certain features and expressions. The intricate details of the furniture and furnishings further enhance the overall charm of this artwork. This print captures not only marital dynamics but also highlights elements of costume, satire, and domestic life from that era. It serves as both entertainment and social commentary on relationships within households during that time period. Overall, "Last in bed puts out the light!" is an amusing piece that offers viewers insight into Ludovici's talent for creating witty illustrations while providing glimpses into historical customs surrounding marriage and bedtime rituals.
