EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical and satirical print from 1845 titled "Farming for Ladies" captures a humorous scene of a lady in a three-wheeled chair being attended to by her footmen in livery as they feed pigs in a pigsty. The handcoloured etching by John Leech is full of detail and charm, showcasing the absurdity of the situation with wit and style.
The lady's elegant parasol contrasts sharply with the messy surroundings of the farm, highlighting the comical juxtaposition of high society and rural life. The footmen's exaggerated actions add to the humor, as they use a ladle to feed the pigs under their mistress's watchful eye.
This piece is part of Follies of the Year, originally published in Punchos Pocket Books in 1864, offering a glimpse into Victorian-era satire and social commentary. Through Leech's skillful rendering and clever composition, this print invites viewers to reflect on class distinctions, gender roles, and societal expectations with a light-hearted touch.
Whether you appreciate historical satire or simply enjoy quirky artwork that makes you smile, "Farming for Ladies" is sure to delight audiences with its playful take on farming etiquette for ladies of leisure.
