EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this historical print titled "Picnicking at Home" from 1859. The satirical image depicts a scene of a family enjoying a picnic in their drawing room, poking fun at the growing habit of snacking instead of sitting around the table for formal meals.
In this whimsical illustration, we see people lounging on chairs and cushions, indulging in food and drink as if they were outdoors on a picnic blanket. The artist cleverly captures the absurdity of this trend by placing it within the confines of a traditional home setting.
The details in the drawing are rich and intricate, showcasing the elaborate decor of the room and the variety of snacks laid out for consumption. It's a humorous commentary on changing social norms and dining habits during that era.
As you gaze upon this print, you can't help but imagine what it would have been like to partake in such unconventional picnics within your own home. It serves as a reminder that even in times past, people found ways to challenge societal conventions and inject humor into everyday life.
Bring a touch of history and satire into your space with this unique piece from Mary Evans Prints Online.
