EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, titled "Cheery Families - Mrs. Bull the Butcher's Wife," captures a moment of joy and relaxation during the Victorian era in London's Bunhill Row. The image, taken by renowned photographer Richard Doyle in the late 1890s, depicts a group of women gathered around a table, engaged in a lively game of cards. At the heart of the scene is Mrs. Bull, the butcher's wife, dressed in a vibrant red apron and a cheerful expression on her face. Her husband's butcher shop, with its meat cleavers and other tools of the trade, is likely just a stone's throw away. Despite the demands of the meat trade, the Bull family seems to have found a moment of respite and happiness in the simple pleasure of a card game. The other women in the photograph are equally engaged in the game, their expressions reflecting a sense of camaraderie and enjoyment. The design of the photograph is reminiscent of Thomas de Quincey's description of "cheery families" in his essay "On Murder, Considered as One of the Fine Arts," published in 1827. De Quincey wrote of the "cheery families" he encountered in London, who, despite the hardships of urban life, managed to find joy and happiness in their daily routines. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the Victorian working class, who found ways to bring cheer and happiness into their lives amidst the challenges of their daily existence. The women in the photograph, with their smiling faces and animated game of cards, embody the spirit of community and joy that de Quincey celebrated in his essay.
