EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and comical scene captured by John Leech, we are transported back to the Victorian era, where romance and courtship were filled with awkward moments and unexpected encounters. The Lady in her exquisite crinoline dress finds herself in a parlour, surrounded by two gentlemen callers who seem to be vying for her attention. Rosa McDermott takes center stage as she navigates the complexities of these rival suitors. Jack Bunting twirls his tam o shanter cap nervously while Jasper Goldspink lounges nonchalantly on a chair. Their contrasting personalities are evident even in their postures. The room itself exudes an air of sophistication with its grand fireplace and elegant cabinet. Handcoloured steel engraving brings out the intricate details of this illustration, adding depth and richness to every element. As we delve into this whimsical world created by Leech, we can't help but wonder what lies ahead for our Lady and her two admirers. Will they find love or will their interactions remain forever entangled in humor? Only time will tell. This print from Robert Smith Surtees' Plain or Ringlets? transports us back to a time when courtship was both thrilling and unpredictable, reminding us that even amidst societal expectations, love has always had its own unique way of unfolding.
