Origin Species, CH Bennett, Quiet man - lamb

As quiet as a lamb. Satire on Darwins Origin of Species showing the evolution of a quiet young man, from a lamb. Dressed in a long tailed coat and being under the impression that he would pass for a riotous young blade, but alas still with his grandmother, concealed within his gingham umbrella.

Bennett Concealed Darwin Dressed Evolution Gingham Grand Mother Lamb Lambs Origin Quiet Satire Species Tailed Umbrella 1860s


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Origin Species: CH Bennett, Quiet Man - Lamb," is a satirical take on Charles Darwin's groundbreaking theory of evolution, "On the Origin of Species." In this whimsical image, we see a young man, dressed in a long-tailed coat and holding a gingham umbrella, transformed from a lamb. With a quizzical expression on his face, he seems to believe that he has successfully passed himself off as a riotous young blade. However, his grandmother, cleverly concealed within the umbrella, betrays his true nature. The evolution of this quiet young man is depicted through various stages, with the addition of a top hat and the introduction of a shuttlecock and battledores. This playful representation of evolution is reminiscent of the way in which lambs that wander from their own pasture provide "sport" to those whose habits they imitate. This charming print, which harks back to the 1860s, is the work of the talented CH Bennett. Bennett's use of satire adds a unique and humorous perspective to the historical context of Darwin's theory, making it a fascinating and intriguing piece of art and historical significance. The print's intricate details and vivid colors bring the scene to life, inviting us to ponder the mysteries of evolution and the human condition.
