EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical engraving from the 19th century captures a humorous representation of the new shaving machine. Created by an English School artist, this cartoon-like print showcases a unique invention that promises to revolutionize the art of shaving. The image depicts a group of individuals gathered around the contraption, eagerly waiting their turn to experience its promised benefits. The caption highlights the expedition, ease, and safety offered by this innovative device. Manufactured and sold by D Merry & Son in Birmingham, it is clear that this shaving machine was intended for mass consumption. The artist's intention seems to be poking fun at both the concept itself and those who would rush to try such a novelty. With its exaggerated features and playful style, this satirical drawing offers scathing satire on societal trends of its time. It serves as a reminder that even in an era known for progress and innovation, there were still moments when people could find humor in everyday life. As we look back on this caricature today, we can appreciate not only its historical significance but also how it continues to entertain us with its wit and charm. This representation of the new shaving machine reminds us that laughter has always been an essential part of our human experience – even during times when expeditions into uncharted territories were met with skepticism or amusement.
