Just A Peep
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into an intimate domestic scene. This enchanting print, part of the Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, showcases the talent of the English School from that era. The image transports us to a cozy room adorned with elegant curtains, where two women are engrossed in conversation. Curiosity fills their eyes as they discreetly peep through a partially drawn curtain. What could have captured their attention? The answer lies outside the window. Intriguingly, we discover a military parade passing by on the street below. Soldiers march proudly while dogs playfully accompany them. It's an unexpected sight amidst this tranquil setting – a juxtaposition between everyday life and grandeur. This engraving not only captures our imagination but also offers insight into societal norms of that time. It reminds us how even mundane moments were punctuated by curiosity and excitement for events beyond our immediate surroundings. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this historical gem from its private collection, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details and artistic finesse of "Just A Peep". As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time – witnessing both ordinary scenes and extraordinary spectacles through the lens of artistry.
