EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful snapshot of mischief unfolding in the tranquil suburbs of the 1850s, this charming print captures the moment two naughty boys embark on a classic game of 'runaway knock.' Dressed in ginger jackets and mischievous grins, they approach the grand entrance of a well-to-do house, their knuckles poised to rap on the door. The sudden interruption of their playful prank brings the head of the household, possibly a butler or footman, and a barking brood of dogs to the front steps. The female occupants, intrigued by the commotion, peer out from the windows, their curiosity piqued. The boys, sensing their success, take off in a burst of laughter, leaving the bewildered adults and canine companions in their wake. This delightful vignette of 19th-century life offers a glimpse into the playful antics of childhood and the unexpected surprises that once in a while disrupted the daily routines of the well-heeled suburban population. Dated 1855, this print invites us to indulge in a moment of whimsy and enjoy the simple pleasures of a bygone era.
