Two Cockney Ladies Discuss Their Romantic Mishaps: A Charming Cartoon by Phil May from the 1890s In this delightful and humorous cartoon by Phil May, two Cockney ladies, dressed in traditional East End attire, are seen engrossed in animated conversation while sitting on a bench in the bustling streets of London. The ladies' expressive body language and animated facial expressions suggest that they are sharing stories about their romantic experiences. The confusion between the words "clandestine" and "incandescent" adds an amusing layer to the scene. It appears that a certain male coster suitor has been the subject of their gossip, and the misunderstanding of these two words has led to some mischief. The term "clandestine" refers to secret or hidden activities, while "incandescent" means glowing or fiery with intense emotion. The costermongers, or "costers," were an essential part of London's street trading community during the 1800s and early 1900s. They sold a variety of goods from their barrows, including fruits, vegetables, and flowers. The ladies in this cartoon are likely Londoners from the East End, known for their distinctive accents and vibrant culture. This charming cartoon offers a glimpse into the daily life and social interactions of the East End community during the 1890s. It is a reminder of the rich history and traditions that continue to shape London's diverse and vibrant identity.
