EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming lithograph print titled "Polly Perkins of Paddington Green or the Broken Hearted Milkman" we are transported back to 19th-century England. The image captures a whimsical scene, filled with humor and love. The focal point of the artwork is Polly Perkins, a young woman from Paddington Green. She stands in the center, her face radiating both mischief and sympathy for the broken-hearted milkman beside her. The milkman's heartache is palpable as he clutches his chest dramatically, while holding a jug of milk in his other hand. This humorous depiction showcases the power of music to heal even the most shattered hearts. Sheet music covers surround Polly and the milkman, hinting at an accompanying song that tells their tale. Perhaps it was written by Harry Clifton himself, who penned many popular songs during that era. The artist's attention to detail shines through in every stroke of this engraving. From Polly's delicate features to the intricate patterns on her dress, each element adds depth and character to the scene. This delightful print invites us into a world where laughter mingles with heartbreak and where even a simple act like delivering milk can become an opportunity for romance. It serves as a reminder that sometimes all it takes is a little humor and melody to mend our broken hearts.
