EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "And she very imprudently married the Barber" takes us back to the late 19th century. Created by Randolph Caldecott in 1885 and published in "The Panjandrum Picture Book" in 1934, this illustration showcases Caldecott's exceptional talent as an artist. In this whimsical scene, we find ourselves witnessing a wedding ceremony taking place inside a charming British church. The bride, adorned in a beautiful white gown and accompanied by her bridesmaids and pageboy, stands before the vicar who is about to unite her with her groom – none other than the barber himself. Caldecott's use of color brings life to every detail within this image; from the vibrant clothing worn by each character to the glimmering finger ring on the bride's hand. As we observe this momentous occasion unfold, it becomes clear that marrying a barber may not be considered wise according to societal norms. Through his artistry, Caldecott captures both humor and intrigue while subtly commenting on social expectations surrounding marriage during Victorian times. This delightful piece serves as a reminder of how illustrations can transport us into different eras and evoke emotions through their visual storytelling. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are reminded of Randolph Caldecott's lasting legacy as one of Britain's most celebrated illustrators whose work continues to captivate audiences even today.
