EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant and whimsical print titled "Choose thy wife on Saturday, not on Sunday" captures a charming scene from early 20th century England. This colour lithograph, created by an anonymous English School artist, showcases the importance of selecting a suitable life partner. In this delightful postcard image, we see a well-dressed worker standing in front of his modest home. He is depicted as someone who values hard work and thriftiness. The caption suggests that choosing a wife on Saturday rather than Sunday is crucial for finding a virtuous and capable housewife. The artwork cleverly conveys the idea that it's essential to consider practical matters when seeking a life partner. The man's appearance reflects his desire for substance over superficiality – he wears clothes that are neat but not extravagant. This postcard serves as both entertainment and advice to its viewers, reminding them of the old proverb: "Choose thy wife on Saturday, not on Sunday". It encourages individuals to prioritize qualities such as diligence and domestic skills when making important decisions about marriage. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into the social norms and values of the time while conveying timeless wisdom about choosing wisely in matters of love and companionship.
